2019 KIA Sportage 1.6L Diesel · AF69 FXZ

The 2019 Kia Sportage remains roadworthy, as the September 2025 MOT at 44,359 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past three years. The mileage progression shows a steady increase of roughly 5,800 miles per year from the September 2022 test (22,568 miles) to the September 2025 test (44,359 miles), aligning with the vehicle’s seven‑year age and typical usage, and no significant gaps appear in the record. A buyer should focus on the rear suspension bushes, coil springs and any sign of binding rear brake calipers, as the 2022 tyre wear on the edges suggests possible mis‑alignment or suspension wear that may affect tyre life, and should also examine the rear wheel arches, chassis rails and brake disc thickness for hidden structural damage or corrosion. The recent clean MOT indicates no recent corrosion or emission failures, but a physical inspection of the structural integrity, exhaust system and brake components is advisable to confirm the absence of hidden faults before purchase.
