2009 KIA RIO 1.4L Petrol · PE09 XTJ

The most recent MOT, dated 2026-05-23, passed with a note regarding sub-frame corrosion that was not seriously weakened. The history shows a pattern of minor issues being noted over time, including brake disc wear and suspension component play, which have been addressed or noted in subsequent inspections. The trend in the MOT history appears stable, as the vehicle has passed subsequent inspections with noted minor wear items rather than a significant deterioration of major safety components. The mileage of 75,270 miles for a 2009 model suggests a relatively low annual mileage of approximately 4,428 miles per year, which could indicate lighter overall use or periods where the vehicle was not driven frequently. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension components, specifically the track rod ends, as they have been noted with slight play in earlier inspections. Secondly, check the brake discs, as they have been noted as worn and pitted in previous years. Finally, inspect the tyres across the vehicle, as they were flagged as slightly damaged or cracking in the 2022 inspection.
