2017 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · GL17 ABZ

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2025‑05‑09 at 80,927 miles with no defects recorded, confirming a stable maintenance trend. Each annual test since 2022 has returned a pass, indicating consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical issues. Mileage progression shows a steady increase from 55,735 miles in May 2022 to 80,927 miles in May 2025, averaging roughly 8,500 miles per year. The testing intervals are consistent at twelve months, providing regular checkpoints without notable gaps or sudden mileage spikes. This pattern aligns with typical usage for a nine‑year‑old SUV. A prospective buyer should inspect high‑wear components: tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, brake disc thickness and pad wear, suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or wear, exhaust mounting brackets, and underbody panels for rust. Although the MOT record is clean, gradual deterioration of consumables is expected, so a walk‑around inspection and a brief test drive are recommended to verify steering responsiveness, braking feel, and ride height.
