2010 Hyundai I30 1.4L Petrol · EA10 AEJ

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable maintenance trend, with no defects recorded in the most recent tests. The May 2023 test at 102,573 miles confirmed the car's roadworthiness, and the June 2022 test at 101,674 miles also passed without issues. However, the June 2022 test was initially recorded as a failure but was later corrected to a pass, indicating a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical problem. This suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no recurring issues to suggest worsening conditions. The absence of advisories or defects in the last three tests provides confidence in the car's current mechanical state. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The car has accumulated approximately 6,411 miles per year on average, which aligns with moderate use. The tests in May 2023 and June 2022 were conducted within a year of each other, showing regular MOT compliance. The only notable gap is between the June 2022 and May 2023 tests, which is within the standard one-year MOT renewal period. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been used and maintained in line with typical ownership patterns. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of consumable components like tyres, wiper blades, and brake pads, which are not recorded in MOT tests. The absence of advisories or defects in the MOT history does not guarantee the absence of wear on these items. Additionally, the structural integrity of the suspension components, such as suspension bushes and coil springs, should be checked for signs of wear or damage, as these are not routinely inspected during MOT tests. Finally, the exhaust system should be examined for any signs of leaks or corrosion, as these issues are not typically detected during MOT inspections.
