2013 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · HK63 AAX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2026‑01‑07 at 65,758 miles, although the tester flagged slight damage to the nearside and offside rear tyres. A side‑repeater lamp failure was recorded on 2025‑01‑10 at 64,284 miles, but the car was retested and passed on 2025‑01‑14, showing that defects are being corrected promptly. Overall the maintenance trend is stable; the car has cleared each test after minor repairs, and no new serious faults have appeared in the latest inspection. Mileage accumulation has been low for a 13‑year‑old car, averaging roughly 5,058 miles per year. The early years show larger jumps—about 9,573 miles between late 2016 and late 2017—while later intervals shrink to under 3,000 miles annually, indicating lighter use. The most recent 1,474‑mile increase between January 2025 and January 2026 reinforces the pattern of reduced annual mileage. A buyer should inspect the rear tyres for cracking or perishing, check front tyre wear against the legal limit, and verify that the rear brake pads are not thin. The front brake discs were noted as worn but not excessively, so a visual inspection of disc condition is advisable. The side‑repeater circuit should be tested to ensure proper operation. Suspension bushes and any signs of corrosion should be examined, as age can affect structural integrity even when mileage is modest.
