2022 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · CV22 JCY

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 2 March 2026 at 29,076 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle consistently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. The absence of recorded faults across multiple tests suggests that the previous owners have addressed issues promptly or maintained a rigorous service schedule. The mileage pattern is consistent for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,269 miles per year. Between the February 2025 test at 25,305 miles and the March 2026 test, the car covered 3,771 miles. This lower rate of accumulation in recent months suggests lighter use, which typically results in less strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and brake components compared to high-mileage city commuting. Since the MOT records show no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear and tear not captured by the stationary test. A buyer should verify the condition of the tyres for depth and uniformity, and check the brake pads for any signs of uneven wear. Given the relatively low mileage, checking for any fluid leaks or perished rubber hoses and bushings would be prudent to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing.
