AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 2 October 2025 at 91,838 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has avoided common age-related degradation. The mileage is typical for an eleven year old car, averaging roughly 8,349 miles per year. Usage has remained steady, with a notable increase between September 2022 and September 2023, where the odometer rose from 76,601 to 84,886 miles. More recent intervals show a slowing trend, with only 4,371 miles added between the September 2024 and October 2025 tests. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last four years is unusual for a vehicle of this age. The record shows no mentions of tyre wear, brake disc corrosion, or suspension bush deterioration, which are common failure points for the Sportage. While the September 2024 entry shows a fail followed immediately by a pass at 87,467 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a very minor rectification. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion, as MOT testers occasionally overlook surface rust that does not yet compromise integrity. Check the condition of the brake pads and tyre treads manually, as the clean MOT history implies these consumables have been replaced proactively rather than failing during a test. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes align with this clean testing record.
