2014 KIA Sorento 2.2L Diesel · CE14 OAC

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status based on five consecutive clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted on 10 January 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This trend of defect-free inspections dates back to March 2022, indicating that the vehicle has not presented any mechanical or structural failures during the last four years of annual testing. The recorded mileage of 96,067 miles over a 12-year period averages to approximately 8,000 miles per year. This usage pattern aligns with typical annual mileage for a large SUV of this age. The records show consistent testing intervals, with tests performed roughly every 12 to 13 months between 2022 and 2026, with no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity that might suggest unusual wear or stationary damage. While the MOT history shows no recorded faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components that are not fully analysed during a standard DVSA test. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or cracking, as these are common points of degradation on Sorentos of this age. The brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as the MOT does not measure remaining pad thickness. Structural integrity of the chassis should also be verified for corrosion, particularly in the sills and wheel arch areas, despite the lack of past failures. Given the vehicle is approaching 100,000 miles, checking the drivetrain and exhaust mounting for any leaks or excessive vibration is a prudent step for any potential buyer. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.
