2024 KIA Niro 1.6L Hybrid electric · MV24 HNB

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status with a perfectly stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 24 March 2026 at 78,112 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the results of previous inspections. This consistency suggests that the mechanical and structural components have met minimum safety standards across all recorded intervals without flagging recurring faults. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a two-year-old vehicle. Since the initial registration in April 2024 with just 24 miles, the car covered 39,588 miles in its first year. Between the April 2025 test and the March 2026 test, it logged an additional 38,500 miles. This consistent high usage pattern of approximately 39,000 miles per year indicates likely long-distance motorway or commercial use, which typically accelerates the wear rate on consumable components compared to average private ownership. Given the high mileage in a short timeframe, a physical inspection must focus on components subjected to high-frequency stress. A buyer should specifically scrutinise the suspension bushings, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of premature wear or leaking. The braking system requires close attention, as brake pad thickness and disc surface condition are likely nearing replacement intervals at 78,000 miles. Additionally, tyre alignment and condition should be checked for uneven wear patterns that might indicate suspension geometry issues not captured by a standard MOT test.
