2022 KIA Stonic 2 S-A 1.0L Petrol · WT22 WLT

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent inspection on 16 March 2026. While the car passed at 27,282 miles with no recorded defects, the failure recorded just three days prior on 13 March 2026 at 27,279 miles is unusual given no listed faults. This suggests an administrative error or a minor technicality that was rectified immediately before the re-test. Despite this anomaly, the maintenance history shows no evidence of recurring mechanical degradation or structural neglect. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-to-moderate usage, averaging approximately 6,820 miles per year. Between the March 2025 test at 21,932 miles and the March 2026 test, the vehicle covered 5,350 miles over a twelve-month period. This low rate of accumulation suggests minimal wear on consumable components such as brake pads, tyre treads, and suspension bushings. The lack of advisories across the last two annual tests indicates that the vehicle has not been subjected to harsh environmental conditions or heavy mechanical stress. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas the MOT does not fully cover, such as fluid levels and the condition of the rubberwork. Given the low annual mileage, there is a slight risk of brake spotting or disc surface corrosion if the car sat stationary for long periods between uses. Since the record is clean of structural corrosion or exhaust emissions failures, the mechanical integrity of the Kia appears well-maintained for its age.
