Our Verdict
This is a solid option for those needing a large diesel SUV, provided the high mileage is acceptable. The recent MOT history shows a consistent passing record without recurring defects.
Given the 2.2L diesel engine and the 139,064 miles on the clock, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history, specifically regarding timing belt intervals and oil changes. At this mileage, components like the turbocharger, DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter), and suspension bushings often require attention.
During a test drive, listen for any unusual noises from the diesel engine or vibrations through the steering wheel. Because the 2024 MOT showed a failure followed by an immediate pass with no recorded defects, it is worth asking the seller what specifically caused that failure to ensure it wasn't a sign of a recurring mechanical issue.
As a 2199cc diesel, this Sorento will be most economical on long motorway journeys, though fuel costs will be higher than a smaller hatchback. You should expect moderate fuel economy consistent with a large SUV.
Tax and insurance will depend on the specific CO2 emissions and the driver's profile, but typically, large diesel SUVs fall into mid-range insurance groups. Maintenance costs may increase as the vehicle enters higher mileage brackets, with more frequent requirements for brake components and suspension upkeep.
Inspect the underside of the vehicle for signs of corrosion, which is common in older diesel SUVs. While the MOT history from 2022 to 2025 shows no recorded structural defects, the high mileage suggests checking the condition of the drive belts and hoses.
Pay close attention to the exhaust system and emissions-related components. Although the 2025 MOT passed with no defects, the high mileage means the DPF may be nearing the end of its optimal service life. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres and brake discs, as these are common wear items on heavier vehicles like this Sorento.
This 2014 silver KIA Sorento has covered 139,064 miles since its first registration in February 2014. While the mileage is high, the vehicle has passed its last four MOT tests, with the most recent inspection in September 2025 showing no defects. The record indicates a vehicle that has been used extensively, averaging over 13,000 miles per year.
