2017 KIA Sportage 2.0L Diesel · YA17 OKX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent and stable maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 7 November 2025 at 72,987 miles passed with no defects recorded, maintaining a clean sheet that spans the last five annual tests. This consistent performance suggests that the previous owners followed a proactive maintenance schedule, as the car has avoided recurring mechanical or safety-related failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,110 miles per year. Between August 2021 test at 43,050 miles and the November 2025 test at 72,987 miles, the car covered 29,937 miles, indicating a steady rate of use. There are no significant gaps in testing or erratic spikes that would suggest the vehicle sat stationary for long periods, which often leads to perished seals or brake corrosion. The data reflects a vehicle that has been used regularly and maintained within predictable parameters. While the MOT record shows no advisories or past failures in recent years, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items typical for this age and mileage. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components are often the first to degrade before an MOT failure occurs. Given the mileage, verifying the brake discs for thinning and checking the calipers for binding is also advisable to ensure the mechanical state matches the clean digital record.
