2014 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · SW14 FHY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent testing history. The most recent MOT test conducted on 21 February 2026 at 73,901 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred on 07 February 2025 at 64,643 miles, the subsequent pass just four days later suggests the owner addressed the identified faults immediately to keep the vehicle roadworthy. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-to-mid range use for its age, averaging approximately 6,158 miles per annum. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the car covered only 5,701 miles, suggesting a period of lower use or storage. However, the mileage increased by 9,258 miles between February 2025 and February 2026, showing a recent uptick in annual usage. This relatively low mileage generally implies less mechanical strain on drivetrain components and the engine assembly compared to high-mileage counterparts. Since the most recent records show no advisories or defects, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points for this model that may not have yet triggered an MOT failure. Check the underside for structural corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points, as the vehicle is now twelve years old. Examine the suspension bushes for cracking and inspect the brake discs for thinning or pitting, as low annual mileage can sometimes lead to rubber degradation or surface rust on the rotors during periods of inactivity.
