KIA SPORTAGE2021 · 1.6L Petrol

This vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 13 February 2026 at 61,165 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes in February 2025 and February 2024, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is high for a five year old vehicle, averaging over 12,000 miles per year. The accumulation has been rapid and steady, with the odometer climbing from 37,664 miles in February 2024 to 61,165 miles by February 2026. This represents a significant increase of 23,501 miles over two years. Such high usage typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and chassis consumables. Despite the lack of MOT failures, the high mileage warrants a physical inspection of specific wear items. A buyer should check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are consumables that may be nearing the end of their service life given the distance covered. The suspension bushes and coil springs should also be examined for signs of fatigue or perishing. The absence of any recorded advisories over three consecutive tests is unusual for a high-mileage vehicle and implies a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner. There are no indications of structural corrosion or exhaust emissions issues in the record. Focus the pre-purchase inspection on service history documentation to ensure oil changes and filter replacements kept pace with the high annual mileage.
