2017 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · GL17 ACF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 13 August 2025 at 99,763 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any listed advisories for the last three years. The mileage is typical for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,085 miles per year. The distance covered between the August 2023 test at 92,488 miles and the August 2025 test at 99,763 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 3,600 miles per year over the last two years. This suggests the car has transitioned from higher annual usage to a more moderate routine. The MOT record is unusually clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across multiple years. While the vehicle failed tests on 7 August 2023 and 1 August 2024, the records do not specify the reasons for these failures. This lack of detail makes it difficult to identify recurring mechanical trends or specific weaknesses in the suspension or braking systems. A buyer should focus on a physical inspection of common wear areas that the MOT record fails to highlight. Check the condition of the brake discs and pads for wear, as the mileage is approaching 100,000. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue and check the underbody for surface corrosion, as these components often degrade regardless of a clean MOT pass.
