2007 KIA Ceed 1.6L Diesel · YE07 RRY

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, suggesting a stable and well-maintained mechanical condition. The most recent test on 28 May 2025 at 144,205 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over several years, indicating that the previous owner addressed maintenance requirements before the official inspections. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nineteen year old vehicle. Between 1 June 2022 at 131,175 miles and 28 May 2025 at 144,205 miles, the car covered 13,030 miles. This averages to roughly 4,343 miles per year over the last three years, which is lower than the overall lifetime average of 7,590 miles per year. Such a consistent pattern suggests regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing, which helps preserve rubber seals and prevents battery degradation. Despite the absence of recorded defects, the vehicle's age and mileage make certain areas a priority for a physical inspection. A buyer should specifically check for corrosion on the chassis and sills, as the MOT record does not detail the condition of the structural integrity beyond the pass result. Inspecting the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing or cracks is also advisable given the 144,205 mile odometer reading. Check the brake discs for lip wear and the tyres for uneven tread patterns. While the tester flagged no issues in the May 2025 test, consumables on a high-mileage Kia Ceed often require attention regardless of a clean MOT certificate. Verifying the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential to ensure the drivetrain remains reliable.
