Our Verdict
A practical large family mover if you need space, but approach with mechanical caution. While the mileage is consistent for its age, recent MOT advisories suggest wear onের components that require immediate attention.
When inspecting this Sedona, prioritize the service history. Given the large 2.9L diesel engine, verify that the timing belt has been replaced according to schedule, as this is a critical maintenance item for this mileage. Look for signs of a power steering leak, as the 2017 MOT noted seepage from the rack seal, which can be an expensive repair if left untreated.
Check the interior for wear, as these large MPVs often see heavy family use. Ensure all electricals are functioning perfectly, as this vehicle has multiple failures related to headlamps, indicators, and stop lamps. Negotiate if the recent advisory for front brake pads has not yet been addressed since the last test.
With a 2902cc diesel engine, expect modest fuel economy compared to modern smaller dies; it is best suited for long-distance cruising. The tax band and insurance group will be relatively high due to the vehicle's size and engine displacement.
Maintenance costs are typical for an older luxury MPV—parts for the Sedona can be more expensive than a standard hatchback. Estimate an annual running cost of approximately £1,400-£1,600 to cover fuel, tax, and routine servicing.
Pay close attention to the front suspension. The 2023 MOT noted an offside front anti-roll bar ball joint with play, and previous records mentioned cracked wiper bushes. A test drive should check for knocks or poor steering feel, which could indicate further suspension wear.
Examine the braking system thoroughly. The MOT history shows a pattern of 'thin brake pads' across 2015, 2018, and 2023. Ensure the discs are not scored or ridged, as the heavy weight of this vehicle puts significant stress on the braking system.
This 2007 KIA Sedona is a large MPV powered by a 2.9L diesel engine, currently showing around 105,374 miles. It has maintained a consistent MOT record over the last several years, though it has shown recurring issues with brake components and light bulbs. The vehicle appears to have been used regularly, with a steady increase in mileage noted between 2019 and 2023.
The KIA Sedona is known for being a robust workhorse, but older model electrical and suspension components can become costly as they age.
