2020 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · ST20 AEO

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent test. The June 2025 inspection at 14,511 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failed test on the same day. This suggests that any issues identified during the initial June 2025 failure were rectified immediately, as the vehicle returned to a compliant state without further recorded faults. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for a 2020 model, averaging approximately 2,418 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, albeit slow, progression from 8,521 miles in June 2023 to 11,406 miles in June 2024, and finally 14,511 miles in June 2025. This pattern indicates the vehicle has seen very light use over the last six years, which typically results in minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. While the MOT record is clean, the low annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have spent significant periods stationary. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of age-related degradation that MOT testing often misses, such as perished rubber components in the suspension bushes or cracking in the tyre sidewalls. It is also prudent to check for fluid degradation or battery health issues common in vehicles that are driven infrequently. Given the lack of recorded advisories regarding brake discs, calipers, or exhaust emissions, the mechanical integrity appears sound from a regulatory standpoint. However, because the vehicle has covered such a small distance, a physical inspection of the brake rotors for surface corrosion and a check of all fluid levels is recommended to ensure the car has been maintained despite its limited usage.
