2021 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · PK71 ACO

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 18 September 2025 resulted in a pass at 26,649 miles with no defects recorded. Although the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,330 miles per year. There was a significant jump in usage between the August 2024 test at 10,043 miles and the September 2025 test at 26,649 miles. This indicates the car covered over 16,000 miles in a single year after a period of very light use. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, with no advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion across all entries. The absence of recurring faults suggests the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a high standard. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check the condition of the tyre sidewalls and brake fluid for age-related degradation, as low-mileage cars can suffer from perished rubber or moisture contamination in the braking system. Verify that the battery holds a strong charge if the vehicle spent long periods stationary.
