2013 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · SN13 KZH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest inspection on 10 February 2026 with 66,342 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car has consistently met the minimum roadworthiness standards following initial failures. While the record shows immediate failures in both 2025 and 2026, the lack of recorded defects on the passes suggests that minor issues or administrative discrepancies were rectified quickly prior to the successful retests. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,100 miles per year. Data shows a consistent usage pattern, moving from 55,322 miles in February 2024 to 61,319 miles in 2025, and 66,342 miles in early 2026. This low annual indicates the car was likely used for short trips, which reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-mile vehicles often suffer from age-related degradation of rubber-based components, such as bushings and tyres, which can dry out and crack if the car sits for long periods between service. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis, specifically checking the sills and wheel arches where surface corrosion typically begins on vehicles of this age. Given the low mileage, the buyer should check for signs of seized brake calipers or pitted discs, which frequently occur when vehicles are used infrequently. The suspension also warrants a scrutiny for perished shock absorbers or worn arm bushes, as low mileage does not prevent the natural decay of these materials over a decade.
