2011 KIA Soul 1.6L Petrol · T3 FJG

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 22 January 2025 at 82,454 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories. The absence of flagged issues across multiple years suggests the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is notably low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 5,497 miles per year. Between 26 January 2024 and 22 January 2025, the car covered 6,749 miles, which aligns with its historical low-use pattern. There is a significant gap in the record between July 2022 and January 2024, though the mileage increase of 6,647 miles during this period indicates the car remained in intermittent use rather than sitting dormant for years. The clean MOT history is unusual for a fifteen year old vehicle, as it lacks any mentions of common age-related failures like suspension bush wear, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust leaks. The failure entries on 16 January 2025 and 23 January 2024 are listed without specific defects, which often suggests administrative errors or very minor issues resolved instantly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that often degrade during low-mileage ownership. Check for perished rubber seals, tyre cracking due to age rather than tread wear, and potential seizing of brake calipers. Because the MOT record is suspiciously clean of advisories, a thorough check for underbody corrosion and the condition of the cooling system is recommended to ensure the vehicle has not been neglected despite passing its tests.
