2018 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · GY18 YPP

The 2018 Kia Picanto presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 June 2025 at 36,682 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean annual results since the first entry in 2021. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 4,585 miles across the vehicle's eight years, a low figure for its age. The record shows steady, modest accumulation: 13,793 miles in June 2021, 19,439 in June 2022, 24,754 in June 2023, 30,522 in June 2024, and 36,682 in June 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear between tests. The clean history across all five entries indicates the previous keeper kept the car lightly used and consistently presented it for timely testing. No advisories or defects were raised on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion at any point. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of underbody condition and brake caliper operation, as standing time from low use can mask latent issues such as seized handbrake mechanisms or tyre sidewall degradation not caught in a pass result. Given the absence of recorded faults, the vehicle shows no recurring mechanical trend requiring corrective action. Pre-purchase checks should focus on confirming the odometer reading and inspecting for workshop-standard wear on consumables like wiper blades and tyres that fall outside MOT fail thresholds.
