2017 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · SA67 BNV

The official DVSA MOT record for this 2017 Kia Venga reflects a fully roadworthy status at the most recent examination. The vehicle passed the standard test on 19 January 2026 with no advisories or defects recorded, continuing a sequence of clean annual results stretching back through 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2021. Five consecutive passes without any flagged items indicate a steady, untroubled roadworthiness trend across the documented period, though it should be noted that MOT compliance alone is a minimum safety standard and does not constitute evidence of mechanical soundness. Mileage progression across the recorded tests points to modest annual use, with the current odometer reading of 44,137 miles equating to roughly 4,900 miles per year over the vehicle's nine-year life. The five tests span late 2021 through early 2026, covering approximately four and a quarter years of activity. There is a notable interval between the February 2023 test and the January 2024 test, suggesting either a gap in annual testing or a period of limited use, while the consistent presence of a test each subsequent year indicates ongoing registration and operation. Low annual mileage can reduce wear on drivetrain and braking components but may also bring its own concerns, such as dried seals, stale brake fluid, or perished components from extended standing periods. With no recorded advisories or failures, there is no specific component history for a buyer to target. A physical inspection should therefore concentrate on areas that MOT testing does not fully cover or that develop between annual tests. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the coil springs and suspension bushes, which commonly deteriorate on low-mileage urban vehicles; the rear brake calipers, which are prone to seizing when a car is used infrequently; and the underside of the car for any structural corrosion that might not have been apparent at the time of test. The exhaust system, coolant, and brake fluid should also be assessed for age-related degradation, as low annual mileage does not prevent perishable materials from ageing. buying_score: 75 risk_level: Low editorial_insight: The MOT history is clean across five consecutive passes with no advisories, supporting a low-risk roadworthiness assessment, though low annual mileage warrants additional physical checks on age-related components that MOT testing does not fully capture.
