2013 KIA Ceed 1.6L Diesel · SB63 FYR

The MOT history for this 2013 KIA CEED shows a single failure recorded in December 2016, followed by a pass on 15 December 2016. The record shows a stable trend of minimal recorded defects, though the data is extremely limited and lacks any recent testing history to establish current roadworthiness. The vehicle has covered 29,312 miles over its thirteen-year lifespan, averaging approximately 2,255 miles per year. This represents very low annual usage for a vehicle of this age. While low mileage typically implies less wear on drivetrain components, such infrequent use can lead to secondary issues such as seized brake calipers, perished rubber suspension bushes, or flat-spotted tyres from long periods of inactivity. The only recorded defect occurred during the 9 December 2016 test, where the nearside front position lamp failed to function. This was a minor electrical issue resolved within six days. Because the MOT record provides no data beyond 2016, a prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the vehicle's current mechanical state. A physical inspection should prioritise checking the condition of all lighting systems, battery health, and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking. Given the low mileage and the age of the vehicle, checking for fluid leaks and ensuring the braking system is free from corrosion or sticking due to lack of use is essential. buying_score: 68 risk_level: Low.
