2013 KIA Sportage 2 Crdi 1.7L Heavy oil · YE63 XMX

The 2026‑06‑24 MOT at 96,337 miles recorded no defects and the tester passed the vehicle. The consecutive five‑year record shows a stable maintenance trend, as each subsequent test from 2022 onward has produced a clean pass with no listed failures. Mileage has risen from 18,819 miles in late 2016 to 96,337 miles in mid‑2026, averaging about 7,400 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 13‑year‑old vehicle. The most notable jump occurred between the 2017‑12‑22 test at 19,220 miles and the 2018‑12‑24 test at 28,700 miles, representing an increase of roughly 9,500 miles in a single year, while earlier intervals show more modest growth. Recurring observations of worn rear brake discs, thin rear brake pads, and perishing rear tyres point to a pattern of brake and tyre wear that should be examined closely. The earlier failures also flagged parking brake inefficiency and headlight adjuster alterations, indicating potential suspension or structural component wear that warrants physical inspection. A buyer should therefore verify the condition of the rear suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and pads, the integrity of the parking brake mechanism, and assess any signs of structural rust or corrosion around the wheel arches and chassis, as these items have repeatedly surfaced in the MOT history.
