2013 HYUNDAI IX201.6L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in March 2026 at 122,319 miles, this followed a failure just two days prior due to multiple defects including a rough wheel bearing, worn tyres, and brake components. The recurring nature of suspension-related advisories across several years suggests that components are only being addressed when they reach a point of failure rather than being replaced during routine service intervals. At 122,319 miles over 13 years, the Hyundai averages approximately 9,400 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage patterns for a family car. The mileage progression shows consistent use, with 7,505 miles covered between March 2024 and March 2025, and another 8,616 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which explains the progressive wear on rubber and mechanical components noted in the records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the record consistently flags worn suspension arm bushes and deteriorated ball joint dust covers dating back 2024 and 2025. The 2026 failure for a nearside rear wheel bearing indicates that drivetrain-related components are now reaching the end of their service life. Furthermore, the mention of a corroded fuel tank in the March 2026 pass is a significant concern for a vehicle of this age; the tank should be checked for structural integrity to ensure the corrosion does not lead to leaks or future MOT failure.
