2015 KIA RIO 1.4L Petrol · MF65 FOP

The most recent MOT test on May 22nd, 2026, resulted in a pass, but the previous test on the same date failed due to several issues. The main recurring mechanical pattern involves the rear sub-frame corrosion and the condition of the tyres. The corrosion on the rear sub-frame was noted in both the failed and passed inspections, with the report stating that structural rigidity was not significantly reduced, which is a point of note. The trend in the MOT history is stable, as the most recent result is a pass following a failure on the same day, indicating that the issues identified were addressed or resolved between the inspections. The mileage of 21,261 miles for a vehicle of this age suggests a relatively low annual mileage, which could imply lighter use or extended periods where the vehicle was not driven frequently. This lower mileage might suggest less wear on certain consumable parts, but it does not rule out wear on suspension or drivetrain components. A buyer should immediately inspect the rear sub-frame for any signs of ongoing corrosion. Secondly, thoroughly check the condition of both the nearside front and offside rear tyres for any signs of cracking or perishing, as these were noted as slightly damaged in the most recent report. Finally, check that the front windscreen washer system is functioning correctly, as this was an issue noted in the previous failure.
