2019 KIA Sportage GT-LN Crdi ISG 4X4 SA 1.6L Diesel · LD19 ABV

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 7 December 2024 at 38,632 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the 13 September 2023 test, indicating the car has maintained a high standard of mechanical integrity over the last two years. The mileage is notably low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,519 miles per year. Between September 2023 and December 2024, the odometer increased by 14,242 miles. This suggests a shift from very light use to a more moderate driving pattern in the most recent period. The lack of any recorded failures or advisories across these milestones implies a consistent approach to basic upkeep. A buyer should focus on components that degrade due to age and inactivity rather than wear. While the MOT record is clean, low-mileage diesel vehicles can suffer from carbon buildup in the EGR valve or DPF if not driven at motorway speeds. Check for perished rubber seals or flat spots on the tyres if the car has sat idle for extended periods. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the calipers are not sticking, as low usage often leads to binding. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs during a physical check. Although the DVSA record shows no structural issues, a manual inspection for underbody corrosion is advised to confirm the vehicle's long-term viability.
