2025 KIA Sportage GT-Line Phev 4X4 Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · KO10 KER

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 24 September 2025. At 60,061 miles, the tester passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has met all minimum safety and environmental standards without flagging immediate mechanical failures or structural degradation. With a recorded mileage of 60,061 miles over approximately four years, this Duster has averaged roughly 15,000 miles per annum. This is significantly higher than the national average for a passenger car, suggesting consistent long-distance use or potentially frequent motorway driving. While the higher mileage accelerates the wear of consumable-related items, the lack of advisories in the 2025 test suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a functional standard despite the heavy usage pattern. Given the high mileage for its age, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to high-mileage stress. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension geometry, checking bushes and coil springs for signs of premature wear or cracking common in used 4x4 models. The braking system should also be evaluated for uneven pad wear or binding calipers, as high mileage often leads to heat-related fatigue in the rotors. Finally, inspect the chassis for any signs of corrosion, particularly around the mounting points and exhaust hangers, where road salt can accelerate rust. While the MOT history is currently spotless, the high annual mileage necessitates a thorough check of the drivetrain components and tyres to ensure the high-frequency use has not compromised the mechanical integrity of the service life.
