2018 KIA Sorento 2.2L Diesel · FH67 OUA

The 2018 Kia Sorrento presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 13 January 2026 at 59,973 miles. The absence of any recorded defects across the entire history demonstrates consistent upkeep and a lack of recurring mechanical issues. This vehicle has passed every inspection without requiring remedial work, indicating a highly stable mechanical condition. Accumulating 59,973 miles over eight years equates to an average of roughly 7,500 miles annually, which sits comfortably within typical usage parameters. The mileage progression reveals steady, incremental accumulation rather than erratic spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. Between the 2024 test at 44,605 miles and the 2025 test at 52,610 miles, the vehicle covered 8,005 miles, a slight uptick from the 4,654 miles covered in the preceding twelve-month period. The most recent year saw 7,363 miles added, confirming a consistent and predictable usage pattern devoid of alarming gaps or sudden high-mileage surges. Given the entirely clean MOT record, there are no recurring faults or structural advisories to scrutinize. A physical inspection should focus on the typical wear items associated with a large SUV of this age and mileage. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for any premature deterioration, and inspect the brake discs and calipers for signs of binding or uneven wear. While the exhaust emissions have historically passed without issue, verify the catalytic converter and diesel particulate filter integrity. Examine the structural integrity of the underbody and chassis mounting points for corrosion, as salt exposure can affect these areas even when the vehicle passes its annual test. Tyre tread depth and condition also warrant a close look, as consumable wear is not always captured in the final MOT defect list.
