2015 KIA Sportage 1.7L Diesel · KRZ 3047

The 2015 Kia Sportage presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 10 May 2025 at 77,669 miles which passed with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the May 2024 cycle shows a clean pass on 13 May 2024 at 73,626 miles alongside a failed attempt logged the same day at identical mileage with no defects cited, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle has cleared every annual examination from 2022 through 2025 without advisories, indicating consistent upkeep across its later life. Mileage progression sits at a modest 7,061 miles per year against an eleven-year lifespan, with the record showing 61,409 miles at the 28 May 2022 test, 67,401 at 31 May 2023, 73,626 at May 2024, and 77,669 by May 2025. The annual increments of roughly 6,000 miles reflect light, steady use with no abrupt accumulation or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, carrying no advisories on tyres, suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across the five-year window. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age, as MOT passes with no advisories do not capture incipient rust on sills or subframes. The same-day fail and pass in May 2024 warrants a check of the DVSA portal for the original refusal reason, though no defects appear on the held record. Verify the service history matches the low annual mileage and confirm coil springs, binding calipers, and exhaust emissions remain within tolerance at point of sale.
