MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Kia Sportage (EO62 YDL) between March 2015 and February 2024.

The record contains 9 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 21 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Brake hose connection leaking on a hydraulic braking system to caliper (1.1.12 (c) (ii))”; “Nearside Rear Brake hose connection leaking on a hydraulic braking system to caliper (1.1.12 (c) (ii))”; “Offside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”.
