2022 KIA Sportage GT-LN S ISG HEV 4X4 A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · MJ72 AAF

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 9 October 2025. Based on the available records, the maintenance trend appears stable, with the vehicle demonstrating a clean bill of health regarding structural integrity and primary mechanical systems. The absence of major failures or recurring defects suggests a vehicle that has been reasonably well-maintained throughout its initial years of service. The recorded mileage of 25,121 miles over approximately four years equates to an annual average of roughly 6,280 miles. This level of usage is typical for a family vehicle of this age and implies a balanced wear profile. It avoids the risks associated with excessive high-mileage wear on the drivetrain and suspension while also avoiding the common pitfalls of very low-use vehicles, such as perished rubber seals or seized brake calipers from prolonged inactivity. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the front tyres, as the latest MOT recorded advisories for both the nearside and offside front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and specifically worn on the edge. This pattern often suggests an issue with wheel alignment or incorrect camber settings, which can accelerate tyre degradation. During a physical inspection, examine the tread for uneven wear or feathering across the surface. On the test drive, ensure the vehicle tracks straight and does not pull to either side, and listen for increased road noise which often accompanies uneven tyre wear. Given the hybrid nature of the powertrain and the vehicle's age, it is essential to verify the service history against the manufacturer's calendar-based requirements rather than relying solely on mileage. Ensure that brake fluid and other essential lubricants have been changed according to the schedule to prevent moisture contamination. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for any signs of surface corrosion and check the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, as these can degrade regardless of low mileage. Finally, confirm that all service book stamps are present to validate the remaining manufacturer warranty.
