2014 KIA Sportage 2.0L Diesel · BK14 KFZ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean MOT record across the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 5 May 2026 at 128,942 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This consistent passing without warnings suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical requirements and avoided the accumulation of minor faults typically seen on vehicles of this age. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's twelve-year age, averaging approximately 10,745 miles per year. Between May 2022 at 92,213 miles and May 2024 at 115,565 miles, the car covered 23,352 miles, showing a steady pattern of use rather than periods of neglect. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest the vehicle was not being used regularly, which helps rule out issues related to seals drying out or internal corrosion that often occurs with long periods of standing. While the digital record is clear of faults, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear components common to the Sportage at 128,000 miles. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade at this mileage despite passing MOT tests. Given the consistent use, checking the brake discs for thinning and inspecting for signs of binding calipers is also advisable to ensure the system is not nearing the end of its service life.
