2019 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · HJ69 DVM

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 February 2026 at 71,442 miles resulted in no defects, maintaining a trend of perfect scores over the last five years. This stability suggests a maintenance regime where the owner has proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they could trigger failures during the DVSA testing process. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,200 miles per annum. Between November 2022 at 33,940 miles and November 2024 at 58,197 miles, the car covered 24,000 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. The recent interval of 2,380 miles between November 2025 and February February 2026 indicates the vehicle remains in regular use. This predictable mileage mitigates the risks associated with long periods of stagnation or the accelerated wear typically seen in high-intensity vehicles. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brakes, or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that the MOT does not fully evaluate. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake pads and disc thickness, as these are only checked during the annual test. Given the age and mileage, checking the integrity of rubber suspension components and looking for any minor fluid leaks is also advisable to ensure the mechanical condition matches the clean digital history.
