2017 KIA Sportage 2.0L Diesel · NJ17 KXG

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 13 November 2025 at 21,746 miles resulted no defects or advisories. This trend indicates a stable maintenance history where the vehicle has been kept in a good mechanical condition without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation over the last four years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,416 miles per year. Between July 2022 and November 2025, the car covered only 4,950 miles, moving from 16,796 to 21,746 miles. This low usage pattern suggests the car was likely used only for short trips or has remained stationary for extended periods. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts or fluid seals through lack of regular use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components typically affected by low-mileage storage. It is necessary to check the tyres for flat spots and brake discs for surface corrosion, which often occurs when a vehicle sits unused. While the MOT record shows no issues with suspension bushes or structural integrity, a manual check should verify that these have not perished or cracked due to age. Given the clean history, the vehicle appears to be a well-cared-for example of its model.
