2016 KIA RIO 1.4L Petrol · MF16 XFZ

The vehicle's MOT history shows an inconsistent pattern of compliance, with the most recent test on 24 December 2025 resulting in a pass after a failure two days prior. This sequence of failures and passes within the same month suggests a period of instability regarding its roadworthiness. While the record shows no defects on the final pass, the repeated failure events in June 2025 and December 2025 indicate that the vehicle has struggled to meet minimum standards during recent inspections. The recorded mileage of 62,782 miles over a ten-year period averages approximately 6,278 miles per year. This level of usage is consistent with typical driving patterns for a vehicle of this age. The MOT data provided covers a relatively recent window from May 2024 to December 2025, though the lack of specific defect descriptions in the failure entries makes it impossible to determine if the issues were related to wear and tear or sudden mechanical failures. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the vehicle to identify the causes of the recent failures. Since the records do not specify the nature of the defects found in June and December 2025, manual checks of the braking system, suspension components, and tyre condition are necessary. Examining the underside for corrosion and checking the exhaust system for structural integrity would be prudent to ensure no underlying issues persist despite the recent pass.
