2017 KIA Picanto 1.2L Petrol · LD67 XCG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 October 2025 at 33,989 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met all regulatory standards. This follows a clean pass in 2024, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained a high standard of upkeep during use. The mileage is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,777 miles per year. The data shows a very steady usage pattern, moving from 18,065 miles in November 2020 to 33,989 miles in late 2025. While low mileage typically implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based components rather than mileage-related wear. The only notable concern in the record occurred in November 2023 at 29,455 miles, where the tester flagged perishing and damage on the nearside front, nearside rear, and offside front tyres. These advisories are typical of low-mileage cars that sit stationary for extended periods, causing the rubber compound to dry out despite sufficient tread. A buyer should inspect the current tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spotting to ensure they have been replaced since that warning was issued. Given the low annual mileage, a physical inspection should also focus on the condition of the brake discs and calipers, which can seize when vehicles are not driven frequently. Checking the suspension bushes and bushings for signs of cracking is also prudent, though the overall record shows no recurring mechanical failures or structural corrosion issues, suggesting a well-maintained example that has not been subjected to heavy use.
