2015 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · FH15 GFE

The most recent MOT, dated 2026-05-22, passed with a specific note regarding the offside rear brake pads wearing thin. A recurring mechanical pattern is visible in the history of brake components, with previous inspections noting wear on front brake discs and the presence of corrosion on brake hoses and reduced damping effect on rear shock absorbers. The trend in the MOT history shows a pattern of noted wear items being recorded, suggesting that wear on braking systems and suspension components is a consistent concern. The mileage of 103,947 miles over approximately eleven years suggests a relatively typical annual usage rate, but the MOT history indicates that wear is occurring on components that are subject to regular use. A buyer should first thoroughly inspect the brake system, paying close attention to the offside rear brake pads, the front brake discs, and the condition of the brake hoses and shock absorbers. Secondly, check the tyres, as previous entries noted wear close to the legal limit and a temporary repair on the rear tyre. Finally, a detailed visual inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear shock absorbers, is recommended due to the recorded reduced damping effect.
