2016 KIA SPORTAGE1.7L Diesel

The 2025‑09‑17 MOT at 52,152 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance record. Since the 2022 test at 30,269 miles, each annual inspection has recorded no failures, showing consistent upkeep. The 2016 Kia Sportage, now ten years old, has accumulated 52,152 miles, averaging about 5,200 miles per year, a rate lower than typical for a vehicle of this age. Mileage rose from 9,582 miles in August 2019 to 12,658 miles in September 2020, then increased by roughly 5,000 miles each subsequent year, with no extended periods of inactivity evident. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension arm ball joint dust cover shown severely deteriorated at 46,605 miles in 2024, check for binding rear brakes and worn suspension bushes, verify tyre tread depth and wheel alignment given the near‑legal tyre wear noted in 2020, and examine the structural condition for any corrosion, as the record shows no prior structural advisories.
