2017 KIA RIO 1.4L Petrol · RE67 AEG

The 2017 Kia Rio presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 April 2025 at 63,957 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly at 59,321 miles on 30 March 2024 and at 51,154 miles on 22 April 2023. The history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across any recorded examination, indicating consistent structural integrity and sound emissions control over the observed period. The mileage pattern aligns with typical use for a nine-year-old vehicle. From the April 2023 test at 51,153 miles to the March 2024 test at 59,321 miles, the car covered 8,168 miles in eleven months. By April 2025 it reached 63,957 miles, adding only 4,636 miles across the following thirteen months, suggesting reduced recent usage. Annual averages sit near 7,100 miles. The record is sparse but entirely clean, with no corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc concerns logged at any stage. The two failure entries on 22 April 2023 at 51,153 miles and 18 April 2025 at 63,954 miles are anomalous. Both show a fail immediately followed by a pass on the next day at marginally higher mileage with no defects recorded. This pattern points to administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical non-compliance, as the subsequent passes cite no faults. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items not captured by a clean MOT, notably tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and fluid levels. Given the low recorded fault rate, focus on underbody corrosion check and suspension component play, though the DVSA data gives no cause to suspect latent structural or drivetrain defects.
