2010 KIA Picanto Graphite 1.1L Other · YLZ 8994

The 1086cc engine is designed for economy, typically placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and tax band. Fuel costs should be relatively low, though if the 'Other' fuel type indicates an LPG conversion, fuel costs could be even lower depending on local LPG prices.

Maintenance costs for a small city car like the Picanto are generally predictable, but at this mileage, expect more frequent replacements of wear-and-tear items. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, sit around £1,100-£1,300.

Focus your inspection on the areas that typically cause MOT failures in older small cars. Although the 2024 MOT recorded no defects, the 2021 and 2024 failures suggest the vehicle can have issues that require attention to pass.

Check the underside for signs of corrosion, especially given the vehicle's age. Inspect the tyres, brake pads, and discs, and listen for any unusual noises from the suspension when driving over bumps, as these are common areas for advisories or failures on high-mileage urban cars.
