2016 Hyundai I30 1.4L Petrol · EF66 AAY

The vehicle presents as a well-maintained example with a stable and clean roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT on 2 December 2025 at 71,003 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects, indicating that the mechanical condition is currently sound. The history shows a consistent pattern of compliance, with no recurring advisories or persistent faults recorded over the last four years, suggesting a disciplined approach to preventative maintenance by the previous keepers. The total mileage of 71,003 over a ten-year period averages approximately 7,100 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this class. The accumulation of miles has been steady and predictable, with no evidence of long-term storage or excessive high-intensity use. The single failure recorded on 9 November 2023 appears to be a clerical or administrative anomaly, as the vehicle passed the test on the same day with no defects noted, implying no underlying mechanical failure occurred at that time. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the standard consumables that typically reach the end of their service life at this mileage. While the MOT history is clean, verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are often replaced between tests and may be nearing their minimum thickness. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perishing or corrosion, as these components are frequently overlooked in visual inspections despite their impact on handling and ride quality. Check the tyre sidewalls for cracking or uneven wear patterns that might indicate tracking misalignment not captured during the annual test.
