2017 KIA Ceed 1.6L Diesel · RK17 FNH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 20 February 2026 at 67,025 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a period of reactive repairs in the previous year. While the 2026 test indicates a clean bill, the history shows that the owner has addressed specific mechanical failures to keep the car up to testing standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,450 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with roughly 7,000 miles driven between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 6,600 miles recorded between February 2025 and February 2026. This regularity suggests consistent vehicle use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps prevent rubber components from perish and brakes from seizing. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the front offside suspension, as the vehicle failed in February 2024 at 55,452 miles due to an excessively worn arm bush. Although this was rectified, the 2025 test flagged thin front brake pads at 62,070 miles. The buyer must verify that the current pads have sufficient thickness and check the discs for uneven wear or heat scoring. Given the age of the Kia, a check of the underbody for corrosion on the mounting points is also advisable to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the low mileage.
