2021 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · LB21 AFX

The vehicle demonstrates a clean and stable maintenance record, confirming its current roadworthiness. The most recent MOT test conducted on 20 March 2026 at 46,653 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This outcome, consistent with the two preceding annual inspections, indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or deteriorating structural integrity. Current mileage sits at 46,653 miles over a five-year period, averaging approximately 9,331 miles per annum. This usage pattern is typical for a modern SUV and suggests consistent, moderate operation rather than prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive heavy-duty use. The absence of mileage spikes or significant gaps between the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests points to a predictable service cycle, which is a positive indicator of regular owner oversight. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of consumable components that fall outside the scope of the MOT test, such as the remaining life on the brake pads and the tread depth across all four tyres. While the MOT history confirms the suspension, steering, and exhaust systems have remained free of defects, a manual check of the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting is advisable given the vehicle's age. The drivetrain and undercarriage appear to have been well-preserved, but verifying the service history for engine oil and filter changes remains the final step in confirming the mechanical longevity of the powertrain.
