Our Verdict
Caution is strongly advised. This vehicl
The primary concern is the current MOT status. The vehicle failed tests on 19th January 2026 and 2nd June 2026; you must establish why these failures occurred, especially as no specific defects were recorded in the data provided. This can sometimes indicate a vehicle that was not presented for the test or had a major issue that prevented the test from being completed.
Given the low annual mileage, check for signs of deterioration caused by long periods of inactivity. Ensure you verify the current road tax status and demand a fresh MOT certificate before completing the purchase. Negotiate the price to reflect the cost of any necessary repairs required to make the car roadworthy.
The 1086cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency in urban environments, typically offering low fuel consumption. As a 2010 model, it sits in a relatively low insurance group and tax bracket, making it an affordable option for new drivers or city commuters.
Maintenance costs for the Picanto are generally modest, though the age of the vehicle means wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake pads will require regular attention. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, is approximately £800-£1,100.
Focus your inspection on the reasons for the two 2026 MOT failures. Since the records show 'no defects recorded' despite the failures, you should physically inspect the vehicle for obvious faults that would prevent a pass, such as expired tyres, brake corrosion, or lighting failures.
Check the engine oil and coolant for signs of contamination, as low-mileage cars can suffer from sludge buildup if not driven regularly. Inspect the bodywork for corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, which is common for vehicles of this age in the UK climate.
This silver 2010 Kia Picanto Graphite has covered 55,651 miles, which is slightly below the average annual mileage for this model. While the vehicle passed its MOTs between 2022 and 2024, the record shows two failures in 2026. The lack of a current valid MOT significantly impacts its immediate value and usability.
Based on aggregate data from 8 analysed vehicles, this model has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 80.6%.
