2018 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · CA67 VCZ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 9 March 2026 at 14,755 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend over the last five years, suggesting that the vehicle has been kept in a good state of repair without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,844 miles per year. Between March 2022 at 2,830 miles and March 2026 at 14,755 miles, the car covered only 11,925 miles. This level of low usage suggests the car was likely used for short local trips, though it also implies the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods. Such low mileage typically results in minimal wear on engine-related components, suspension bushings, and brake assemblies compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the MOT record is flawless, a buyer must perform a physical inspection for risks associated with low-mileage vehicles. Infrequent use can lead to flat-spotted tyres, corroded brake discs, or seized brake calipers due to lack of friction. The buyer should check the condition of the rubber components for cracking and ensure that fluids have not aged or degraded despite the low mileage. Additionally, checking the underside for early signs of surface rust is advisable, as low mileage does not prevent environmental corrosion if the car was stored in a damp environment.
