2013 KIA Sportage 1.7L Diesel · FL13 FFT

The 2013 Kia Sportage presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 February 2026 at 83,006 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 6,385 miles, consistent with typical use for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The records show steady annual increments: 65,050 miles in March 2022, 70,195 in March 2023, 74,463 in March 2024, 79,379 in March 2025, and 83,006 in February 2026. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The DVSA history is sparse in advisories, with every test listing zero defects across suspension, brakes, emissions, and structural checks. A clean record across five tests suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. That said, the absence of recorded advisories does not confirm component condition. At 83,006 miles and thirteen years old, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs will have aged regardless of test outcomes. A buyer should still inspect for corrosion on structural members and subframes, check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, and verify brake caliper operation and disc wear in person. The MOT data shows no recurring faults, but only a physical inspection confirms the Sportage's mechanical integrity beyond the test bay.
