2017 KIA Sportage 1.7L Diesel · MJ67 ADU

The 2017 Kia Sportage presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2026-02-17 confirming no defects at 87,813 miles. The prior test on 2025-06-05 recorded a pass at 79,512 miles, though an apparent duplicate entry for the same date shows a fail at 79,510 miles, likely a data inconsistency. No recurring mechanical issues were flagged in the record, suggesting consistent maintenance. The absence of advisories or critical failures in the latest test indicates the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no immediate risks to safety or functionality. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,757 miles annually. The record shows a 14,000-mile increase between 2024-06-03 (64,556 miles) and 2025-06-05 (79,512 miles), reflecting moderate annual usage. A smaller gap of 3,239 miles between 2023-10-24 (61,317 miles) and 2024-06-03 suggests periods of lighter use, potentially indicating seasonal or infrequent driving. The MOT history is otherwise clean, with no evidence of excessive wear on consumables or structural components. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which may degrade over time without visible MOT failures. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be inspected for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop gradually. While the MOT record shows no issues, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant a thorough check of exhaust emissions and structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and body seams, to confirm no hidden damage or rust has progressed beyond inspection thresholds.
