2021 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · PK71 ACX

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 23 September 2025 at 54,531 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. While 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 accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a five year old car. Between 30 September 2024 and 23 September 2025, the vehicle covered 16,400 miles, increasing from 38,131 to 54,531. This indicates a period of regular, active use. The absence of any flagged faults across these intervals suggests the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided common wear and tear issues. A physical inspection should focus on standard consumables given the current mileage. While the MOT record is exceptionally clean, a buyer should check the remaining tread depth on all tyres and the thickness of the brake discs and pads. At 54,531 miles, these components often require replacement if they have not been serviced recently. Check for any signs of surface corrosion on the underbody and inspect the suspension bushes for perishing. The lack of historical advisories is a positive indicator, but a manual check of the fluid levels and a review of the service book will confirm if the mechanical upkeep matched the clean MOT results.
