2018 KIA PICANTO1.2L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 20 March 2026 at 14,096 miles returned no defects or advisories. This stable maintenance trend indicates that the car has remained in good mechanical condition throughout its life, without the recurring mechanical or structural failures that often appear in urban vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old car, averaging approximately 1,762 miles per year. Between May 2021 at 6,854 miles and July 2024 at 10,723 miles, the vehicle covered only 3,869 miles over a three-year period. The subsequent 3,373 miles recorded between the 2024 and 2026 tests suggest light usage and minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine-related components, though it also implies the vehicle may have spent long periods stationary between intervals of use. While the record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should inspect for issues common to low-mileage vehicles. Particular attention should be paid to flat spotting on tyres, corrosion on brake discs due to lack of use, and the degradation of rubber components like suspension bushes or perished hoses which can age regardless of mileage. Checking the underbody for early surface rust is also advisable, although the MOT history has not flagged any structural integrity concerns to date.
