KIA SPORTAGE 3 PHEV 4X4 AUTO2022 · 1.6L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently clean MOT record across its entire history. The most recent inspection conducted on 22 July 2025 at 59,664 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This performance indicates a stable maintenance trend, suggesting that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical requirements and consumable wear before they reached a point of failure during official testing. The mileage pattern reflects a consistent high-intensity usage profile, averaging approximately 15,000 miles per annum. Between the initial test in July 2021 at 27,869 miles and the July 2025 test at 59,664 miles, the vehicle covered 31,795 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the car is used regularly, which often prevents issues related as brake caliper seizing or rubber seal degradation. However, the high mileage for a four-year-old vehicle places greater demand on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to lower-mileage fleet examples. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, the high mileage necessitates a physical inspection of components prone to accelerated wear. A buyer should scrutinise the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and lateral links for signs of fatigue or tearing due to the frequent use. Given the PHEV weight and the recorded mileage, the brake discs and pads should be checked for uneven wear or glazing, as the braking system has worked significantly over the last 60,000 miles.
