2017 KIA Sorento 2.2L Diesel · FL67 VJM

The 2017 Kia Sorento presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 6 October 2025 at 116,278 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual examination either passing or failing on administrative grounds without any mechanical fault noted by the tester. No advisories or recurring defects appear in the record, which indicates the car has not shown worsening wear patterns over its tested life. Mileage sits at 116,278 against a nine-year age, equating to roughly 12,920 miles per year and placing this example above average use for its class. The records show a jump from 78,912 miles at the 30 September 2023 test to 101,717 miles by 5 October 2024, then a further 14,561 miles to the October 2025 pass. That is consistent annual accumulation rather than a standing-period gap, and the sparse but clean test data gives no evidence of neglected consumable intervals. The duplicate failed entries on 30 September 2023 and 6 October 2025 at identical mileages to the passes suggest clerical or submission errors at the test centre rather than rejected roadworthiness. A buyer should still confirm the V5C and DVSA portal show a single valid pass for each year, since two logs on one date can mask a withdrawn first attempt. In person, the buyer should scrutinise suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers for binding, and underbody structural integrity for corrosion, as high annual mileage raises the odds of unseen wear despite the clear MOT sheet. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and tyre tread depth across all axles, given the accumulated 37,366 miles since the 2023 test.
