2019 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · LA68 LSV

The 2026‑01‑26 MOT at 51,805 miles confirms the 2019 Kia Sportage is roadworthy, with only tyre wear and a child‑seat fitting issue recorded as defects. All previous tests from 2022 to 2025 show no mechanical failures, indicating a stable maintenance record. Mileage has risen steadily from 32,215 miles in March 2022 to 51,805 miles in January 2026, an average increase of roughly 3,000 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s seven‑year age and typical usage patterns; there are no large gaps between tests, confirming consistent annual servicing. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brakes are not binding, examine the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and check the exhaust and structural members for rust, while also confirming that the adult seat belt can be fully inspected despite the child seat fitting.
