2015 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · WD15 TXY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in proactive care regarding consumables. The most recent test on 20 August 2025 passed at 53,738 miles, following a failure just one day prior due to an offside rear tyre with a tread depth below the legal limit. While the immediate failure was rectified to achieve a pass, recurring advisories for worn tyres across multiple years suggest that the previous owner only addresses these components once they reach a failure point. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 53,738 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 4,885 miles. This low-use pattern is evident between 2022 and 2023, where the vehicle covered only 2,363 miles in a year. However, the jump of 2,449 miles between October 2023 and October 2024 indicates a recent increase in usage. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from degradation of rubber components and brake seals, which aligns with the specific mechanical issues noted in the history. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension geometry, as the MOT record consistently flags inner-edge wear on the offside front tyres in both 2024 and 2025. This specific pattern of uneven tyre wear typically indicates an incorrect alignment or worn suspension bushes that require adjustment. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding a slightly deteriorated offside rear brake hose with corroded metal sections requires a close look to ensure the corrosion has not progressed to a structural failure, as low-use vehicles can suffer from internal corrosion in brake lines over time.
