2015 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · KV65 ACZ

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass rate. The most recent MOT on 7 August 2025 at 24,930 miles was completed without a single defect or advisory. This clean bill of health follows a four-year trend of flawless tests, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for an eleven-year-old car, averaging roughly 2,266 miles per year. The progression is steady and linear, moving from 15,064 miles on 2 August 2021 to 24,930 miles by August 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the record, suggesting the car has been used sparingly but regularly rather than sitting dormant for years. While the MOT history is pristine, the low mileage introduces specific risks associated with vehicle stagnation. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and check for binding calipers, as light use often leads to seized components. The tyres and wiper blades should be checked for age-related perishing or sidewall cracking, regardless of the remaining tread depth. Attention should also be paid to the rubber suspension bushes and engine mounts. These components can harden and crack over a decade of ownership even if the mileage remains low. A test drive should focus on identifying any perished seals or fluid leaks that may have developed during periods of inactivity.
