2014 KIA Carens 1.6L Petrol · SY14 OSJ

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 28 March 2025 at 89,889 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day at 89,888 miles, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old vehicle. It has covered roughly 7,491 miles per year. The distance between tests remained steady, with 13,823 miles added between March 2022 and March 2023, and 9,357 miles between March 2023 and March 2024. The most recent interval from March 2024 to March 2025 saw an increase of 7,995 miles, indicating a predictable and stable usage pattern. The absence of any advisories or failures across five years of testing is unusual for a vehicle of this age. The record shows no history of recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. There are no mentions of corrosion or structural integrity concerns, which often plague older chassis. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance by the previous owners. A physical inspection should still focus on common wear items that MOT testers may overlook if they are within legal limits. Check the condition of the tyre treads and the depth of the brake pads. Given the lack of flagged faults, a buyer should verify that the service history matches this clean MOT record to ensure oil changes and filter replacements were performed regardless of the test outcomes.
