2021 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · SE21 ACJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with no defects recorded in its most recent June 2025 MOT at 19,231 miles. Both the 2024 and 2025 tests showed no issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past 13 months. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the low mileage raises questions about long-term component health. The vehicle’s mileage of 19,231 miles, recorded in June 2025, aligns with an average of 3,846 miles per year since 2021. The 2024 MOT at 13,440 miles shows a 5,791-mile increase over 13 months, which is below the typical annual average. This suggests either minimal usage or extended periods of inactivity, which could affect components like suspension bushes or brake discs if not regularly exercised. The sparse MOT history offers limited insight into potential wear patterns beyond the stated dates. While no defects were recorded, the low mileage and extended intervals between MOTs warrant a closer inspection of suspension components, such as coil springs and bushings, for signs of wear or corrosion. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for binding or uneven wear, as infrequent use can lead to sticking mechanisms. Structural integrity should be verified, particularly around the chassis and body seams, to ensure no hidden rust or damage has developed during periods of inactivity.
