Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You prefer a higher seating position: this SUV/crossover type may suit. Try getting in and out; the body shape alone does not prove extra seats or four-wheel drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at 189,099 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2017 Sportage diesels in Ireland are practical 2WD compact SUVs, though AWD was offered on some trims — an AWD car will need checks on the transfer/diff oils. Diesel Sportages commonly use small-capacity diesel engines (CRDi in various states of tune) and have a manual gearbox; watch for DPF and EGR soot build-up if the car has mostly done short urban trips. Clutch replacement is the main wear item on manual examples, but overall parts and dealer support are easy to find in Ireland.
- DPF regeneration history and signs of excessive soot or recent forced regenerations (common if used mostly for short trips)
- Manual clutch for slipping or high biting point and smooth engagement (9-year-old clutch may be worn)
- Turbocharger shaft play and oil in the intercooler/hoses (oil residues can indicate turbo or oil-return issues)
- EGR valve and intake for soot/blocking which causes rough running or loss of performance
- Underbody and rear wheel-arch corrosion, and check rear suspension bushes for wear or knocking
