2016 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · OS02 AYA

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 18 June 2025 with 57,837 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car has consistently met minimum standards over the last three testing cycles. While the record shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, the lack of recorded defects on the passing certificates suggests that the owner addressed any identified faults immediately prior to the retests. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,784 miles per annum. Between the 2023 test at 36,160 miles and the 2024 test at 48,140 miles, the vehicle covered 11,980 miles, followed by another 9,697 miles in the subsequent year. This consistent usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation which generally benefits drivetrain and suspension components, though low annual mileage can sometimes lead to rubber degradation or brake corrosion if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their inspection on the components that caused the failures in 2024 and 2025, as the provided data does not specify the mechanical reason for those declines. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical check of the structural integrity for corrosion on the underside and rear sills is essential to ensure no hidden rust is developing. Inspect the brakes for binding calipers and the suspension bushes for cracking to confirm that the low mileage has not resulted in neglected maintenance or perished rubber elements.
