2017 KIA Sportage 2.0L Diesel · CV17 OGE

The 2017 Kia Sportage presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean pass recorded at 73,718 miles on 28 February 2026. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults across the available history. The most recent test noted no defects, and the vehicle carries a current valid certificate with no outstanding advisories. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,200 miles per year, typical for a nine-year-old vehicle. The records show consistent yearly use: 46,123 miles in April 2023, 55,487 miles in March 2024, 66,831 miles in March 2025, and 73,718 miles by February 2026. The DVSA log is sparse but clean, with only a failed entry on 11 March 2025 that recorded no defects and was immediately re-tested and passed the same day, suggesting an administrative or documentation error rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage. No corrosion, exhaust emissions failures, or structural integrity issues appear in the official record. The absence of advisories across five tests implies previous owners kept basic consumable wear in check. Given the fault-free history, the Sportage requires only standard pre-purchase checks: verify service stamps, inspect tyre tread depth, and confirm underbody condition for hidden rust. The MOT data alone shows no recurring problems or serious mechanical risks requiring corrective action before sale.
