Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2000 model year cars.
- Chassis and sill corrosionSerious
Rust is the main reason early Sportages disappear. Chassis rails, body mounts, sills and rear floor sections can corrode badly enough to make structural repairs uneconomic.
- 4WD hub, transfer-box and propshaft wearModerate
Vacuum hubs, transfer components and propshaft joints wear with age and neglect, leaving the vehicle noisy, reluctant to engage 4WD or vibrating badly under load.
- Cooling-system leaks and overheatingModerate
Radiators, hoses and viscous-fan or thermostat issues can leave these older SUVs running hot, which is dangerous because many cheap cars have already been driven with low coolant.
