2015 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · WD15 AAZ

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 October 2025 at 56,533 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is low for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,139 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained relatively steady, increasing by 4,317 miles between October 2022 and October 2023, and 6,217 miles between October 2023 and October 2024. The most recent interval shows a smaller increase of 4,328 miles. This consistent usage pattern suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The absence of any advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and indicates a high standard of preventative care. While the record shows a failure on 13 October 2023 at 45,988 miles, it was passed on the same day with no defects listed, implying a minor administrative error or a rapid rectification of a trivial issue. There are no recorded trends of corrosion, suspension wear, or brake deterioration. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that do not always trigger MOT failures but degrade with age. Check the condition of the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and inspect the engine oil and coolant for signs of contamination. Given the lack of structural or mechanical flags in the DVSA data, the primary concern remains confirming that the service history matches the clean MOT record to ensure the timing belt or other age-dependent consumables have been replaced.
