2019 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · BA69 OWM

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted in November 2025 at 52,657 miles resulted in no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend over the last four years, suggesting the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements without allowing issues to escalate into the failures seen in poorly maintained vehicles. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a SUV, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Data shows a steady increase in usage between July 2023 at 30,975 miles and November 2024 at 44,814 miles, where the vehicle covered over 13,000 miles in a sixteen-month period. However, the usage returned to a more moderate pace leading up to the 52,657 mile test. This regular interval is generally beneficial for modern vehicles, as it prevents the seal drying and component degradation often associated with long periods of inactivity. Since the MOT record shows no advisories for suspension bushes, brake components, or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that fall outside the scope of the MOT test. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and discs for uneven wear, as the tester only checks for binding. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for fluid leaks around the engine and the condition of rubber suspension components remains advisable to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean digital record.
