2021 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · P11 DDH

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, exhibiting a consistently clean record across its entire MOT history. The most recent test conducted in March 2026 at 41,292 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend indicates a disciplined maintenance regime where the previous owners have proactively addressed potential issues, preventing the accumulation of mechanical or structural faults that typically appear in older vehicle records. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,250 miles per annum. Between the March 2024 test at 32,428 miles and the March 2025 test at 36,720 miles, the car covered 4,292 miles, followed by another 4,572 miles in the final year. This steady usage profile suggests regular short driving rather than long periods of stagnation, which often reduces the cumulative wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to higher mileage counterparts. Since the MOT history shows no recurring faults or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear that falls outside the MOT testing parameters. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for uneven wear, as well as inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking or uneven tread. Given the low mileage, checking for fluid leaks and the condition of rubber engine components is essential to ensure the vehicle has been well-maintained as the digital record suggests.
