2017 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · PJ67 HRE

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent inspection on 29 July 2025 at 60,917 miles. While the maintenance trend appears stable, the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes in both 2024 and 2025. This suggests that the previous owner operates reactively, addressing faults only when they are explicitly flagged by the MOT tester rather than following a proactive, preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 41,571 miles and August 2024 at 52,081 miles, the car covered over 10,000 miles, indicating a period of higher usage during that specific year. However, the overall low mileage suggests the strain on the drivetrain and engine components remains minimal, though rubber components and seals may still degrade due to age rather than mechanical wear. The recurring failures in 2024 and 2025 without recorded defect descriptions in the summary often point to narrow-margin items such as bulbs, wiper blades, or minor fluid leaks that were rectified immediately. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these are common points of failure on this model regardless of low mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the underside for corrosion on the exhaust system and brake lines is essential to ensure structural integrity has not been compromised despite the clean MOT results.
