Since its launch, Kia Picantos have become hot property on the used car market. Three years on and with 30,000 miles on the clock, the diminutive Kia 1.1 holds on to half of its value when specified with the desirable Ice trim. This is more than the Citroen C1 (47%) or even Toyota Aygo (47%) can manage.
