KIA SPORTAGE2015 · 1.7L DIESEL

The 2015 KIA Sportage presents a consistent maintenance record, with the most recent MOT pass achieved on 5 August 2025 at 60,505 miles. This latest test yielded no defects, indicating that the mechanical and safety components met the required standards at that time. This follows a clean pass in October 2024 at 53,194 miles, showing a stable period of roadworthiness over the last two years. The vehicle appears to have been maintained well enough to clear the annual inspection repeatedly. At 60,505 miles over 11 years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 5,500 miles per year. This low-mileage profile typically suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if sat stationary. The November 2023 test at 42,531 miles highlighted several areas of attention, specifically flagging discoloured both nearside and offside rear direction indicators, thin front brake pads, and four tyres nearing the legal limit. The fact that these issues were not present in the October 2024 test suggests the previous owner addressed these consumable-related items promptly. The current data shows a transition from minor wear issues in 2023 to a completely clean sheet in the most recent inspections. While no structural corrosion or mechanical failures were ever recorded, the buyer should still check for surface rust on the chassis and suspension arms, which are common failure points on vehicles of this age regardless of mileage. The absence of recurring advisories in the final two tests indicates a proactive approach to vehicle upkeep by the recent keeper.
