2019 KIA Stinger 2.0L Petrol · PL69 YKX

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 with no recorded defects, indicating it was roadworthy at that time. The maintenance trend shows a clear improvement following the March 2024 test, which flagged worn front tyres and thin front brake pads. The subsequent two annual tests were completely clean, suggesting the advisories were addressed promptly by the previous owner. There are no recurring structural, suspension, or exhaust defects across the record, and no failure history at all. Mileage accumulation is broadly typical for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles annually. The recorded 59,378 miles is consistent with normal use. A notable period of higher utilisation occurred between the January 2023 test (26,499 miles) and the March 2024 test (42,522 miles), representing around 16,000 miles in 14 months. Usage since March 2024 has returned to a more average rate, with roughly 9,700 miles added in the 11 months to February 2025 and a further 7,100 miles to the February 2026 test. A buyer should physically inspect the front tyres and brake system, as these were the only components flagged with wear. The March 2024 advisory noted both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and specifically worn on the edge, which can indicate previous under-inflation or a wheel alignment issue. The thin front brake pad warning means the friction material was significantly depleted at that mileage. While later tests show these items were likely replaced, verifying current tread depth and remaining brake pad thickness is essential. The suspension and steering components should also be checked for any play or wear that could have contributed to the uneven tyre wear, though no bushes or joints were ever officially defective. No corrosion or structural damage has ever been recorded.
