KIA PICANTO2013 · 1.0L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT pass on 29 October 2025 at 80,814 miles was achieved with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a pattern of passing without advisories, suggesting the car is mechanically sound and well-maintained. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 6,627 miles between the November 2023 test at 66,687 miles and the October 2024 test at 74,189 miles. A similar usage pattern continued into 2025, with the odometer reaching 80,814 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing, which typically helps preserve rubber seals and battery health. The MOT history is unusually clean for a 2013 model. There are no recorded failures for common age-related issues such as suspension bush wear, coil spring fractures, or brake disc corrosion. The record shows two instances where the car failed and passed within 24 hours in October 2024 and October 2025, though the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check for surface corrosion on the sills and chassis, as this is common for this era of Picanto. Verify the condition of the tyre treads and the smoothness of the clutch pedal, as these consumables are not flagged in the clean record but will naturally wear at 80,000 miles.
