2018 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · FX68 USO

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 October 2025 at 57,883 miles returned no defects or advisories. This streak indicates a stable maintenance trend over the last three years, suggesting that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical requirements and ensured the vehicle meets all safety and emissions standards without failing the testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-intensity urban use, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per annum. The data shows a slight increase in use between July 2023 (40,145 miles) and November 2024 (50,729 miles), where over 10,000 miles were covered in seventeen months. However, the usage has since returned to a more moderate pace in the most recent tests. This low overall mileage for an eight-year-old vehicle generally reduces wear on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and interior components compared to higher-mileage counterparts. Since the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion, binding calipers, or suspension component failure, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable items that fall outside the scope of the MOT test. Check the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking or age, as low-mileage vehicles sometimes suffer from rubber degradation. Given the age of the car, verify the state of the fluids and the condition of the brake pads to ensure that the low usage has not led to surface rust on the brake discs.
