2017 KIA Sportage 2.0L Diesel · KG02 AMG

The 2025‑06‑17 MOT at 62,375 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend. The earlier 2025‑06‑17 failure entry also listed no defects, suggesting a clerical duplication rather than a genuine fault. The mileage trajectory over the past four years reflects a consistent annual increase of roughly 6,800‑7,000 miles, aligning with the vehicle’s nine‑year age and typical usage for a 2017 model. The jump from 37,043 miles in May 2022 to 47,833 miles in June 2023 represents an accelerated 10,790‑mile period of just over six months, but subsequent intervals show a more regular pace. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that have historically shown wear: suspension bushes and coil springs, which may exhibit fatigue after high mileage; brake discs and calipers, which require inspection for scoring or binding; and the chassis for any signs of structural rust, especially around the wheel arches and underbody. While the MOT history demonstrates no recurring failures, a thorough in‑person examination of tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emission levels will confirm that the vehicle’s upkeep matches the documented reliability.
