2017 KIA Sportage 3 ISG Crdi 1.7L Diesel · DUI 7112

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthiness condition, having passed its most recent inspection in March 2026. However, the history shows a significant concerning in February 2026, where the car failed the test just two weeks prior to the re-test. This suggests that a specific mechanical or safety issue was addressed immediately to bring the car into compliance. Since that failure, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without further recorded defects or advisories. The mileage progression is consistent with typical usage for its age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year over the last four years. There was a notable increase in activity between 2022 and 2024, where the vehicle covered over 14,000 miles, followed by a more moderate pace in the most recent period. The total of 78,727 miles places the car in a bracket where consumable components such as suspension bushings, artwork discs, and tyres may be requiring tighter inspection for accelerated wear. While the most recent results show no active faults, a prospective buyer should inquire about the specific cause of the February 2026 failure to ensure the repair was thorough. Given the age and mileage, a physical check of the underbody for structural integrity and brake lines is advisable to ensure no hidden corrosion is developing between the annual checks. The overall trend indicates a vehicle that is being maintained well enough to pass regulatory standards when issues arise.
