2018 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · CA18 UBC

The vehicle has passed its most recent MOT on 2025-11-18 at 52,886 miles, indicating it remains roadworthy. However, the maintenance trend shows some concerns, particularly with brake wear and tyre condition, which have been recurring issues over the past few tests. The mileage pattern reflects typical usage for a vehicle of its age, with approximately 6,611 miles driven annually. Notably, there is a significant gap between the 2024-11-20 test at 46,598 miles and the 2025-11-18 test at 52,886 miles, suggesting a period of higher usage or possibly less frequent MOT testing. Prior to that, the mileage increments were more consistent, with tests occurring roughly every 12 months. Buyers should pay particular attention to the front and rear brake systems, given the repeated reports of worn brake discs and pads. Additionally, the nearside front tyre showed signs of excessive wear in the 2021-06-03 test, and both front tyres were close to the legal limit in the 2025-11-18 test. These findings suggest that the brakes and tyres may require more frequent inspection and replacement than average. Furthermore, the fluctuation in service brakes noted in the 2025-11-18 test indicates potential issues with brake fluid or caliper operation, which should be investigated during a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
