2018 KIA Stonic 1.6L Diesel · ST18 EPV

The 2026‑02‑04 MOT at 41,688 miles confirmed the 2018 Kia Stonic remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. The consecutive passes from 2023 through 2026 demonstrate a stable maintenance trend, with the tester noting no failures in any of the four annual tests. The vehicle’s mileage of 41,688 miles equates to roughly 5,200 miles per year, a figure that is low for an eight‑year‑old model and suggests either light use or extended periods of standing. The gaps between tests span 11 to 13 months, and each interval added between 6,300 and 6,800 miles, indicating regular but modest annual usage rather than any sudden surge in mileage. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, confirm that the rear brakes show no binding, examine brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and look for any signs of structural rust or exhaust deterioration that may not have been captured in the MOT. Given the clean record and consistent mileage pattern, the Stonic appears well cared for, yet a thorough in‑person assessment of the mechanical components listed above remains essential before purchase.
