2017 KIA RIO 1.0L Petrol · MM67 ADU

The 2017 Kia Rio presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 8 July 2025 at 66,577 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available record. A curious anomaly appears on that same date, where the vehicle first failed then passed with no defects recorded on either certificate, repeating a pattern seen on 19 July 2023 at 49,094 miles. This suggests administrative re-testing rather than mechanical fault, but the buyer should confirm the V5C and DVSA portal entries match. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,400 miles per year. The record shows 49,094 miles in July 2023, rising to 58,008 by July 2024, then 66,577 by July 2025. That is consistent year-on-year accumulation of around 8,000 to 9,000 miles, with no standing gaps or sudden spikes. The clean advisories across all four tests indicate the previous keeper addressed consumables before each examination, though the sparse history leaves little visibility of intermediate wear. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the timeline. The absence of advisories at 66,577 miles implies the structure and running gear remained within limits at the last inspection. A buyer should still commission a physical check of underbody structural integrity and brake caliper operation, as MOT cleanliness at one snapshot does not evidence long-term component condition. Given the repeated fail-pass pairs with zero defects, verify the test centre logged the correct reasons for the initial failures. Inspect tyre sidewalls and wiper blades for age-related perishing despite no recorded wear items. The Rio's history shows disciplined annual testing, yet the duplicated 2023 and 2025 entries warrant documentary confirmation before purchase.
