2020 KIA Picanto 1.0L Petrol · WN20 ADZ

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 12 June 2026 at 69,184 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of successful tests over the last three years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a six year old city car. The vehicle covered 9,170 miles between July 2025 and June 2026, and a similar distance of 10,864 miles between June 2024 and July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglected service intervals or hidden degradation from standing. Previous records indicate only minor issues with consumables and basic adjustments. In June 2024 at 49,150 miles, the tester flagged two tyres worn close to the legal limit on the offside front and nearside rear. A failure on 3 July 2023 at 39,974 miles was resolved quickly after the tester found the headlamp aim too high on both sides. These are routine wear-and-tear items rather than systemic mechanical flaws. A buyer should focus on a physical inspection of the tyre treads and brake pad thickness, as the 2024 advisory suggests a reactive rather than proactive approach to tyre replacement. While the MOT history is clean regarding structural integrity and suspension, the current mileage of 69,184 miles means components like shock absorbers and suspension bushes are entering a phase of expected wear. Checking for any signs of oil leaks or drivetrain noise would be a prudent final step.
