2015 Hyundai I30 1.6L Diesel · DA65 AAK

The vehicle currently holds a valid pass from the 13 October 2025 test at 33,522 miles, with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend is stable, as the most recent examination follows prior clean passes. The earlier failures on 1 October 2024 at 31,313 miles and 12 October 2023 at 28,199 miles each show no defects logged, indicating administrative or presentation anomalies rather than worsening mechanical condition. The i30 is an 11-year-old car showing 33,522 recorded miles, averaging roughly 3,047 miles per year. In the 8 October 2024 pass at 31,360 miles, it had covered just 3,161 miles since the 12 October 2023 pass at 28,199 miles. A rapid re-test on 1 October 2024 at 31,313 miles failed without defect entry, mirroring the same-day fail and pass pattern from October 2023. Such low annual accumulation suggests light use or prolonged storage, with sparse test history offering limited insight into consumable wear. A buyer should commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion, particularly to chassis legs and sills, given the car's age and likely periods standing. The tester logged no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or exhaust emissions across the record, yet rubber components perish with time irrespective of mileage. Check for binding calipers and degraded bushes during a road test. The repeated fail-with-no-defect entries imply previous owners presented the car for test prematurely or met administrative hiccups rather than skipping mechanical upkeep. That pattern reflects conscientious if infrequent maintenance, but verifying independent service history remains prudent.
