2019 KIA Sportage 1.6L Diesel · ND19 HTP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 14 November 2025 at 67,642 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met all regulatory requirements. This consistent trend of passing without advisories suggests a proactive approach to maintenance where previous owners addressed potential issues before they escalated into test failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical light-use profile, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 38,048 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The short interval between the February 2022 and November 2022 tests reflects a mid-cycle check after only 3,942 miles rather than a mechanical necessity. This low annual mileage suggests that the drivetrain and suspension components have not been subjected to the high stress typically seen in high-mileage urban commuting. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or faults, an in-person inspection should focus on standard wear items associated with this age and mileage. A buyer should verify the condition of the tyre treads and brake pads, as the MOT does not measure the remaining life of these consumables. Given the vehicle's age, checking for minor cracking in rubber suspension bushes or early surface corrosion on the underbody is prudent, though the history provides no evidence of structural integrity issues or persistent mechanical failures.
