KIA SPORTAGE2022 · 1.6L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness as evidenced by a clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 15 January 2026 at 39,654 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed any mechanical or safety concerns before they could result in a failure during the DVSA inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between the January 2025 test at 33,462 miles and the January 2026 test at 39,654 miles, the car covered 6,192 miles. This suggests regular, moderate usage rather than the potential degradation often associated with long periods of standing or the accelerated component wear seen in high-mileage urban commuting. Since the MOT records show no history of structural corrosion, brake faults, or suspension issues, physical inspection should focus on the standard wear of consumables. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for uneven wear, and check the tyres for adequate depth and even distribution. Given the relatively low mileage, the drivetrain and suspension bushings should remain in good condition, but a visual check for fluid leaks is always prudent to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean digital record.
