2015 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · DC65 AAC

The 2015 Kia Sportage presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 52,725 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the full MOT history is stable, showing no advisories or failures at any stage. Annual tests from 13 September 2021 at 30,488 miles through to September 2025 show a steady, low accumulation of roughly 4,800 miles per year. The 21 September 2022 test at 37,061 miles, 21 September 2023 at 42,632 miles, 13 September 2024 at 46,884 miles, and the 2025 test confirm consistent light use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record is sparse in faults but clean, with no gaps in testing and no sudden mileage jumps that would suggest neglected high-load driving. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record shows no advisories but low-mileage cars left standing can develop hidden rust on sills and subframes. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant physical checks despite the passes, since the tester logged no wear and the vehicle's age means rubber and metal components degrade with time regardless of mileage. Given the unbroken pass record, previous owners appear to have kept the Sportage to basic statutory testing without deferred entries. The absence of tyre, wiper, or exhaust emissions flags implies reasonable consumable care, though a pre-purchase examination of binding calipers and handbrake function remains sensible on a car of this age.
