2017 KIA Sportage 1.6L Petrol · YN67 UWX

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance record across all recorded tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 7 November 2022 at 30,684 miles passed with zero defects or advisories. This indicates a consistent service history where the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids triggering any mechanical or structural failures during the MOT testing process. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. Between November 2020 and November 2021, the car covered 4,227 miles, followed by another 4,158 miles in the subsequent year. This low usage pattern suggests the vehicle was likely used primarily for short-distance trips, which typically limits wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, such low mileage over a long period can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake fluid moisture if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a buyer must inspect for issues associated with low-mileage stagnation. Particular attention should be paid to the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking and the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting due to infrequent use. Since the record shows no advisories for suspension or exhaust, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but a physical check of the rubber bushes remains necessary to ensure they have not perished from age despite the low load.
