2015 KIA Sorento KX-2 Crdi ISG 4X4 2.2L Heavy oil · OIG 5724

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 3 August 2024 at 116,475 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum safety and environmental requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation across the last three testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for an eleven-year-old SUV, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per annum. Between the December 2021 test at 83,954 miles and the March 2023 test at 102,990 miles, the vehicle covered nearly 19,000 miles in just fifteen months, indicating a period of high usage. The subsequent interval of 13,485 miles leading to the 2024 test shows more regular operation, which often helps prevent the seal failures and component corrosion associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is clean, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear components common to this heavy 4x4 model. Given the 116,475-mile mark, the buyer must verify the condition of the suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and coil springs, as these often degrade before triggering an MOT failure. The brake discs should be checked for thinning or uneven pitting, and the chassis should be examined for surface rust that may not yet have reached the threshold of a structural integrity advisory.
