2017 KIA Sportage 2 Crdi ISG 1.7L Diesel · RM53 AMS

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent pass record. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 January 2026 at 107,020 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets all DVSA safety requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns over the last five years. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old SUV, averaging approximately 11,900 miles per annum. Between the 2021 test at 60,808 miles and the 2026 test at 107,020 miles, the car covered roughly 46,000 miles, showing steady usage patterns. There is a notable gap of 9,000 to 10,000 miles between most annual tests, suggesting the vehicle has been used regularly for longer journeys rather than sitting idle, which generally prevents the degradation of seals and rubber components. While the MOT history is clean of recorded faults, a physical inspection should still focus on high-mileage components that fall outside the standard testing scope. At 107,020 miles, the buyer should examine the condition of the suspension arm bushes and coil springs for signs of wear, as these often perish out at this interval. The brake discs should be checked for thinning or uneven wear, and the exhaust system should be inspected for surface-seated corrosion despite the lack of advisories in the official record.
