2018 KIA Sportage GT-Line S Crdi ISG SA 1.6L Diesel · MXZ 4977

This Kia Sportage presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 14 November 2024 at 46,668 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean tests, as the vehicle also passed without any advisories or failures in December 2023 and September 2022. The mileage is notably low for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,834 miles per year. The distance covered between the September 2022 test at 32,864 miles and the November 2024 test at 46,668 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 6,900 miles per annum. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest commercial use or sudden changes in ownership patterns. The absence of any flagged defects across three consecutive years suggests a high standard of preventative care. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions appear in the record. The lack of advisories regarding corrosion indicates the structural integrity of the chassis remains sound. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished tyre rubber or binding brake calipers due to inactivity. Check the date codes on the tyres and ensure the brake pedal feel is firm, as the MOT record alone cannot account for the current state of rubber seals or fluid degradation since the last test.
