This is the content I can't live without. Is there anything better than watcihng a makeover of a cheap 2009 Kia Picanto that's only done 1300 miles since new, after a long day at work, eating dinner? I can't eat without content from High Peak Autos. It's my food.

My mother is 85 and can no longer drive, however she keeps her top of the range Audi A1 in the garage in case of emergency. Mileage is very low and it only did around 300 miles in the last year being driven by myself to a garage for an MOT and then to an Audi dealer for a full service. She will hear nothing about selling it which would be the correct course of action. Annual insurance to do 300 miles runs to over £830 per annum. Cost per mile absolutely ridiculous.

I picked up a 65 plate Euro 6 Diesel Panda Cross with 14,400 miles in June.... new tyres and brake discs pads all round, Propshaft and lower arms had been replaced, obviously the rubber bushes had perished necessitating their replacement. It's been a great little car so far. Had to buy it thanks to the Mayor of London telling me I was an awful person for previously having a panda 4x4 diesel which being Euro 5 was going to destroy the planet.... The less said about that the better though..... or him anyway.

What that means is they have most likely done lots of short journeys, the engine wear per mile on short journeys is much higher than engine wear per mile on longer journeys. A low mileage car doesn't mean it's in good condition.

Got a 2013 RAV4 petrol CVT last year with 24k on the clock. Not 1000 miles granted, but it was pretty much as new condition and 10,000 miles later it is running like a dream.

I think with some of the silly prices being asked for new cars, people are now thinking harder about buying a good used car that will last a while. This looks ideal as an economical and reliable little town car for someone not too fussy about performance or sporty looks. Something for a grandma to pop up to Sainsburys and Boots to get her prescriptions - or to meet up with friends and relatives locally maybe? My mother had something similar until she stopped driving - I don't think she drove more than 1000 miles each year in it, but it was serviced each year and kept clean in her garage.

We also have a newer model KIA Picanto in the family which we have had from new and is low mileage - it's about five years old and has done 7k; I do take it out every now and then for a longer journey as I agree that it's good for a car to have a good run to stop rear brakes seizing up etc. Ours is an auto which has quite an old fashioned four speed box; very responsive round town, but economy terrible for such a small car... really not relevant in the scheme of things since the overall cost is low.

Considering the car was 6.1k new in 2009 this means at the price he's selling 4.7k it has depreciated by literally £1 a mile as it's only done 1400 from new, I think 4k would be reasonable but still too high for what it is. As you say it is a very basic car that has barely been used. I would be worried about bushings perishing if the tyres look that way god knows what the rest of the rubber bits look like!

My father in law has a 66 plate Skoda Yeti with 4800 miles on it still has it serviced at Skoda every year,so yes there out there. Also he’s 80 soon and thinking of treating himself to a Toyota Yaris so it will maybe be out there in the new year ,I can tell you apart from a good clean this car is as it rolled off the line.

I don’t understand. What does ‘under budget’ mean? Never heard that said before 🤭. Really love that you find such low mileage gems and get them back on the road. Terrific 👏

Massively underspent !! I think your sale price is a good price. Although it’s a car to be used , with the service history and low mileage it’s one of those park up and on store it cars and in a few years it’ll start to go up in value. It’s the poverty spec disposable cars that are often the ones worth the money.

I love the Picanto, looks silly and tiny but is like a Tardis when you get in it. Not sure I could live with the tiny 68BHP engine but I believe the new version has a 100bhp Turbo in the top spec version. That in a car that weight only slight more than a lettuce leaf must be serious fun to drive.

Years ago I had a traded in Picanto as a courtesy car for a day. An earlier model than this one but low usage having been mostly attached to a motorhome for a few years. Of course it was a ridiculous little thing.... but it had the very best manual gearchange I have ever driven. I was amazed. Kia was not a well known brand at the time.

Loved seeing a white Picanto and a top result for once. I have owned a 66 plate white 5 door Kia Picanto Sport 3 spec for the last 2.5 years with 52K now on the clock. I only needed a small car as a daily as I also have a VW T5.1 campervan and this popped up locally with 32K on it for £5,900. I have seen the same spec with my current mileage for around £7K now! You can't lose with these. I can't tell you how much I love my little car. It is quick yet frugal, sporty yet stealthy. All the 3 spec toys: Kia Sport bodykit, Sat nav, climate, half black / red leather, cruise control, alloys, alu pedals etc etc. Kia give you some great VFM. I have dodo matted the rear and front pan / arches to reduce road noise and fitted Heka deflectors all round otherwise it's stock and it looks and drives great. ( You may have driven past me at some point Mat as I live in the High Peak! I always recognise the roads & locations...)

Cracking video Matt, this is deja vu for me. We bought a 2009 Kia Picanto with 18K miles for £2.5K last year for my wife, it had passed the MOT every time, with tyre advisories only. It flies along with 99-octane fuel, and is so much fun to drive, as you actually have to push it hard to keep up with the traffic. Better to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. You can park it anywhere and it will never get stolen. Nothing gone wrong (so far). These cars are magic for running costs and so much more reliable than almost anything else, and when things go wrong, cheap to fix. Never believe you could get £4.5K for it, do tell us what you sold it for. PS Radio 4 is on every day. What is the story on the cam belt though? It hasn't done the miles, but it has the age..

With minor damage to lamps like that. Try filling the cracks with clear epoxy first. It will cost a couple of quid and while it won't always work, I feel like the number of times it does work is worth risking £2 in epoxy.

MOTs in Northern Ireland are in a government place and the waiting times are months if you don't sit on the laptop refreshing and refreshing. They definitely are a lot stricter than in England.

I have a 60 plate Piccanto 1 and had it from new. First(1)new cambelt every 6 years . I have done 57,000 and now DIY service after warranty expired as the KIa dealer a rip off. It is a great car and I will keep mine as long as parts are available. The body is very good. My MOTs are clean but the first had a headlamp adjustment needed.

HI, a great Video and even grater find. Have you thought of offering the Picanto to Kia UK ? Would make a great showpiece for a Dealership or Kia Collection....Could be worth a lot more than retailing it .Cheers Dave DB Motors

Great video as always. But in this one you didnt mention the cam belt, surely that needs changing on a car of this age regardless of millage especially as it seems its spent most of its life sat on the drive. That being said, still enjoyed the video and look forward to the next one. Let us all know how you get on selling it please. Cheers

I once drove a hire car Picante from Glasgow Airport to Luton Airport, with various stops at selected Universities with my son to help select the right one for him. I will never forget the look on the Luton Airport Hire car guy when we toled him we have driven from Glasgow in it. The whole drive, especially atmotorway speeds was like living inside a hair drier. But this one is a resl find and a beauty!!
