2010 KIA Picanto 1.1L Petrol · FN60 OTV

The 2010 Kia Picanto presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 8 October 2025 at 57,319 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The vehicle cleared the October 2023 test at 52,570 miles, the October 2024 test at 54,889 miles, and the October 2025 test at 57,319 miles without intervention required beyond the test itself. Recorded mileage sits at 57,319 against a 16-year lifespan, equating to roughly 3,582 miles per year. This is low for the age and points to light use or extended standing periods. The annual increments are modest: 2,749 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, then 2,430 miles to October 2025. Two failed tests appear on the same dates as the passes in 2024 and 2025 at identical mileages, with no defects listed, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical rejection. The clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely periods of inactivity that accelerate rubber perishing and surface corrosion. The DVSA data shows no advisories on exhaust emissions, structural integrity, or binding calipers, but a 2010 chassis can hide rust in sills and subframes unseen during a pass test. Verify the twin 2024 and 2025 fail entries with the selling garage to confirm no suppressed defect history exists behind the zero-defect listings.
