2017 KIA Carens 1.7L Diesel · OV17 AAK

The 2017 KIA CARENS holds a clean MOT record with five consecutive passes from 2021 to 2025, each returning no defects. The most recent test in March 2025 at 31,745 miles confirms the vehicle meets minimum roadworthiness standards without any flagged issues. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no emerging or recurring faults over the four-year period. The recorded mileage of 31,745 miles over nine years equates to roughly 3,527 miles per year, which is low for a vehicle of this age. Annual increments between tests range from 2,431 to 4,693 miles, indicating consistent light use rather than prolonged standing, though the decreasing mileage in recent years suggests reduced usage patterns. With no advisories or failures in the history, the car has not flagged any structural or mechanical concerns. A buyer should inspect components prone to age-related deterioration despite low mileage, such as suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, brake discs for corrosion from infrequent use, and the exhaust system for rust. Tyre age and condition, along with fluid levels and battery health, also warrant attention given the vehicle's age.
