2017 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · FL67 VHP

The Kia Picanto presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 1 July 2025 at 62,668 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with the vehicle clearing its final test cleanly after two earlier administrative failures that carried no recorded mechanical defects. The history shows no escalating faults, advisories, or structural concerns across the observed period. Recorded mileage sits at 62,668 against a nine-year lifespan, averaging roughly 6,963 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The odometer moved from 44,309 miles at the 1 July 2023 test to 56,814 miles by 2 July 2024, then to 62,639 miles by 17 June 2025. That equates to about 12,500 miles in the first interval and 5,800 in the second, showing a mild slowdown in use rather than rapid accumulation. The sparse record carries no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion at any stage. The two failures dated 2 July 2024 and 17 June 2025 both list zero defects, indicating paperwork or presentation issues rather than worn components. A buyer should still confirm in person that no latent wear exists on brake discs, coil springs, or exhaust emissions systems despite the clean sheets. Given the low annual mileage, check for perished rubber seals or standing-water corrosion underneath, as light use can mask damp-related structural degradation. No recurring mechanical faults appear in the DVLA data, so the Picanto reflects consistent basic upkeep by prior keepers. Inspect the tyre tread depth and wiper condition visually, though neither drew tester comment. The vehicle is mechanically sound on paper as of the last test twelve months ago.
