2021 KIA Niro 4 + EV Electricity · RO71 YLL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on two consecutive clean MOT records. The most recent test conducted on 4 October 2025 at 64,259 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owner has maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures typically flagged by DVSA testers. The mileage profile reflects a higher than average usage pattern for a five-year-old electric vehicle, averaging approximately 12,850 miles per year. There is a significant gap of 19,594 miles between the October 2024 test at 44,665 miles and the October 2025 test. This consistent accumulation suggests the car is used regularly for longer journeys rather than sitting idle, which generally results in more predictable wear on suspension and bushings compared to low-mileage vehicles. Despite the clean records, the high mileage dictates that a buyer should focus on components susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. An in-person inspection should evaluate the suspension arm bushes and coil springs for signs of premature wear, as these often degrade after the 60,000-mile mark. Given the electric nature of the drivetrain, the brake discs should be checked for pitting or uneven wear, as regenerative braking can sometimes lead to surface corrosion if the physical brakes are not used frequently.
