2021 KIA SPORTAGE 2 CRDI ISG MHEV1.6L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 10 March 2026 at 43,156 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and structural components currently meet all DVSA standards. This follows a series of clean passes, suggesting the Sportage has been adequately maintained without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. Between March 2024 at 20,476 miles and March 2025 at 31,347 miles, the car covered over 11,000 miles, showing a period of higher usage. The subsequent interval of 11,809 miles leading to the March 2026 test confirms a steady, predictable rate of operation. This consistent mileage accumulation generally reduces the risk of component degradation associated with long periods of stationary use or extreme high-mileage stress. While the record shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion, a buyer should verify the condition of the offside rear seat belt. The March 2025 test noted that a child seat prevented a full inspection of the adult belt, so a physical check is required to ensure the mechanism functions correctly and is not damaged. Given the relatively low mileage, an inspection of the suspension bushes and brake discs is advisable to check for minor rubber cracking or pitting, though the MOT history has not flagged these areas as concerns.
