2018 KIA Sportage 2 ISG 1.6L Petrol · WE02 ALY

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted on 6 October 2025 at 86,592 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle currently meets a high standard of operational readiness. This suggests a stable maintenance trend, as the car has avoided recurring mechanical or structural failures across multiple annual testing cycles. The mileage pattern aligns with typical annual usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,824 miles per year. Between the 2022 test at 50,420 miles and the 2023 test at 60,468 miles, the car covered 10,048 miles, followed by a more significant interval of 26,124 miles before the 2025 inspection. This consistent accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often prevents the degradation of seals and rubber components. While the digital record shows no flagged faults, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to wear at the 86,000-mile mark. Specifically check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or fatigue, as these are common points of failure at this mileage. Given the clean history, the brake discs and pads should be examined for uneven wear or thinning to ensure the previous owner has maintained the standards reflected in the MOT passes.
