2023 KIA Sorento 3 Crdi AWD S-A 2.2L Diesel · MM72 PWN

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 16 December 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle passed the inspection without any mechanical or structural failures. The only noted concern was a minor advisory regarding the nearside front tyre showing sidewall damage or cracking, which represents a consumable wear issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure or safety risk. At a recorded mileage of 21,405 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 7,135 miles per year over its three-year lifespan. This aligns with typical usage patterns for a family SUV and suggests the drivetrain has not been subjected to excessive stress that would prematurely accelerate the wear of the suspension or braking components. The interval between the last test and the current date is relatively short, meaning the mechanical data remains a relevant reflection of the car's current condition. A buyer should physically inspect the nearside front tyre to ensure the reported sidewall cracking noted in the December 2025 test has been addressed, as perished rubber can lead to sudden blowouts. Given the relatively low annual mileage, it is also prudent to check for signs of flat-spotting or oxidation if the vehicle sat for long periods between uses. Beyond the tyre condition, the record shows no history of recurring structural corrosion, binding calipers, or exhaust failures, indicating a well-maintained mechanical history to date.
