2015 KIA Ceed 1.0L Petrol · PO14 ALF

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 18 September 2025 at 33,636 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of clean passes, indicating a stable mechanical condition and a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage is remarkably low for an eleven year old car, averaging roughly 3,058 miles per year. The odometer readings show steady, incremental growth, moving from 16,672 miles in September 2021 to 33,636 miles by September 2025. There are no erratic jumps or suspicious drops in mileage, suggesting the car has been used sparingly but regularly rather than sitting dormant for years. Because the MOT record is entirely devoid of advisories, there are no recurring mechanical faults to flag. The absence of mentions regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or tyre tread depth over five years is unusual for a vehicle of this age. It suggests a previous owner who prioritised upkeep or a vehicle that has spent most of its life in a sheltered environment. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. The buyer should check for perishing rubber seals, the condition of the battery, and any signs of brake caliper seizing due to low usage. Checking the date codes on the tyres is essential, as low-mileage vehicles often run on tyres that are legally treaded but chemically aged and hardened.
