2018 KIA SPORTAGE1.7L Diesel

The 2018 Kia Sportage stands as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the July 2025 MOT at 77,602 miles which passed with no defects recorded. Each prior annual examination from July 2021 through July 2024 also returned a clean pass, showing no worsening pattern or recurring mechanical faults. The odometer climbed from 28,700 miles at the July 2021 test to 42,475 by July 2022, then 54,805 in July 2023, 65,268 in July 2024, and 77,602 in July 2025. Those yearly gains of between 10,463 and 13,775 miles reflect consistent private use near the 9,700-mile annual average for the age. The DVSA log reveals no gaps between tests and no abrupt accumulation that would signal fleet abuse or long stationary periods. Testers flagged no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity across all five visits. That unbroken clean sheet suggests previous keepers rectified wear proactively before each summer deadline. A buyer should still physically examine underbody corrosion, steering joints, and tyre tread depth, as the most recent pass dates from twelve months ago and consumables may have degraded since.
