2020 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · CV69 OGG

The 2025-10-13 MOT at 49,008 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle is currently roadworthy and that the maintenance trend remains stable since the previous 2025-01-02 test, which also recorded no defects at 44,594 miles. Mileage accumulation over the past two years shows a steady increase: from 35,645 miles on 2024-01-04 to 44,594 miles on 2025-01-02 (8,949 miles in 12 months) and then to 49,008 miles on 2025-10-13 (4,414 miles in nine months), averaging roughly 7,500 miles per year, which aligns with the typical 8,168 miles per year for a six‑year‑old car. Recurring issues flagged in the 2025-01-02 record include a worn, pitted front brake disc, thin front brake pads, a near‑side rear tyre tread depth below the 1.6 mm legal limit, a deep cut in the off‑side rear tyre reaching the ply, and slight play in the near‑side track rod end ball joint; the 2025-10-13 test recorded none of these, suggesting that any remedial work may have been completed or that the faults were not re‑observed. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the front brake discs and pads for wear or scoring, verify tyre tread depth and look for sidewall cuts on all four wheels, examine the near‑side track rod end ball joint for excessive play, test the operation of both windscreen wipers, and check for any signs of structural rust or corrosion that might affect long‑term durability.
