2023 KIA Sportage GT-Line S ISG HEV A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · CC60 LOR

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with its first official inspection on 25 March 2026 resulting in a pass. The only mechanical concerns noted during this test were related to the front tyres, which were flagged as being worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. The recorded mileage of 28,920 miles is typical for a vehicle of this age, representing an average annual accumulation of approximately 9,640 miles. This level of usage suggests a standard wear cycle for drivetrain components and suspension bushings, without the accelerated degradation associated with high-mileage fleets or the potential stagnation issues found in vehicles that have remained stationary for extended periods. Attention should be directed toward the front axle tyres, as the advisories specifically mention wear on the edges of both the nearside and offside front tyres. During a test drive, the buyer should monitor for any steering pull or a tendency for the vehicle to drift, which could indicate that the wheel alignment is out of specification. Inspecting the remaining tread depth across the full width of the tyre is essential to determine if a full replacement is now required given the time elapsed since the March test. Beyond the tyre wear, the absence of other advisories or failures in the DVSA record indicates that the braking system and structural components have not yet shown signs of premature degradation. A physical inspection of the tyre shoulders should be conducted to confirm if the edge wear is symmetrical or indicative of a specific suspension geometry issue that may require correction alongside tyre replacement.
