KIA PICANTO2015 · 1.2L Petrol

The 2015 Kia Picanto presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 21 November 2025 at 93,378 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior tests on 3 December 2024 at 92,267 miles and 3 May 2023 at 77,396 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across the available record. Mileage sits at a typical level for an eleven-year-old car, averaging roughly 8,489 miles per year against the 93,378 miles recorded. The gap between the May 2023 test at 77,396 miles and the December 2024 test at 92,267 miles shows about 14,871 miles covered in nineteen months, a normal use rate. The record is sparse but clean, with only five entries and no advisories logged on any pass. One anomaly warrants scrutiny: the test on 1 May 2024 at 87,029 miles failed with no defects recorded, followed by a pass on 2 May 2024 at the same mileage. This suggests an administrative or presentation fault at the testing station rather than a mechanical defect, though the buyer should verify the failure reason via the full DVSA certificate. No recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion issues appear in the data. Given the clean history, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, brake discs, and suspension bushes given the vehicle's age. The absence of advisories does not exempt an eleven-year-old car from age-related wear on consumables and chassis components. Confirming the May 2024 failure context remains the only specific action prompted by the record.
