2019 KIA Sorento 2.2L Diesel · SV19 WVT

This vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 1 September 2025 at 39,624 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similar clean result in August 2024, indicating the car is currently maintained to a high standard with no recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,661 miles per year. The distance covered between the April 2022 test at 19,256 miles and the September 2025 test at 39,624 miles shows a consistent, light usage pattern. There are no sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest heavy commercial use or sudden changes in ownership patterns. The MOT history is remarkably sparse regarding faults. The only recorded issue occurred during the 31 August 2023 test at 27,741 miles, where the tester flagged an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit on the edge. This is a common consumable wear item and does not indicate a systemic mechanical failure. The absence of any mentions of suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues suggests a well-preserved chassis. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles can suffer from perished rubber seals, battery degradation, or brake caliper seizing due to inactivity. Check for any signs of surface corrosion on the underbody and verify the age of the tyres to ensure the rubber has not hardened, despite having plenty of tread remaining.
