2021 KIA SPORTAGE1.6L Petrol

This vehicle demonstrates a stable and exemplary roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 17 December 2025 at 53,666 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of failure-free tests, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical UK usage for a five-year-old car. Between 20 March 2024 and 7 March 2025, the vehicle covered 10,995 miles. A slightly higher rate of use followed, with 7,108 miles added in the nine months leading up to the December 2025 test. There are no irregular gaps or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive commercial use. The absence of any advisories across three consecutive tests is uncommon and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. The tester flagged no issues with brake disc thickness, tyre tread, or suspension bushes, nor were there any mentions of corrosion or exhaust emissions failures. This lack of recurring faults implies the previous owner addressed wear-and-tear items before they became MOT failures. A physical inspection should focus on standard consumables that the MOT does not always quantify in detail. Check the service history for evidence of oil changes and filter replacements to ensure the engine has been cared for beyond the basic legal requirements. While the MOT record is flawless, a buyer should still verify the condition of the cabin filters and the health of the battery, as these components do not typically trigger an MOT failure unless they cause a total system breakdown.
