2016 KIA Venga 1.4L Petrol · MA16 UCS

The 2016 Kia Venga presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 29,689 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, no recurring advisories, and no structural or mechanical concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 29,689 miles against a ten-year age, an average of roughly 2,969 miles per year. The DVSA entries confirm light use: the March 2022 test logged 23,182 miles, rising to 25,195 in March 2023, 26,638 in March 2024, 28,147 in March 2025, and 29,689 in March 2026. Annual accumulation stayed between 1,400 and 1,700 miles with no gaps or sudden jumps. Such low, consistent totals suggest gentle commuting or periodic standing rather than neglected storage, though long idle spells can still allow corrosion or perishable components to degrade unseen. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. The clean MOT record means the tester logged no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions faults at any stage. Low mileage and a spotless history imply previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet test passes do not certify tyre sidewall condition, hidden subframe rust, or fluid degradation. Prior to purchase, verify underbody structural integrity, check brake calipers for free movement after standing, and confirm coolant and timing belt intervals for a 2016 petrol unit. The MOT data alone supports a sound mechanical verdict, but hands-on checks remain prudent given the car's light-use profile.
