2014 Hyundai IX35 1.7L Diesel · EJ14 ABU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-05-15 at 59,848 miles showed a pass with no defects, but an earlier entry on the same date recorded a failure with no defects listed, creating an inconsistency. This suggests either a data entry error or a duplicate test. Assuming the pass is valid, the car has maintained roadworthiness over the past three years, with no major issues reported in prior tests. The absence of defects in the 2024-2025 records indicates stable mechanical condition, though the lack of detailed findings limits insight into specific component health. The mileage progression shows a low annual average of ~4,987 miles since 2014, with a notable jump from 48,931 miles (2023) to 55,501 miles (2024), followed by a slower increase to 59,848 miles (2025). This pattern suggests periods of reduced use, which can accelerate wear on static components like suspension bushes or rubber seals. The sparse defect data in older tests (2022–2023) implies minimal mechanical stress, but the low mileage may also mean the vehicle has not been driven enough to fully test systems like the exhaust or drivetrain under normal conditions. A buyer should inspect the suspension for hardened bushes or coil spring fatigue, common in low-mileage vehicles. The absence of brake-related defects in MOTs does not rule out hidden issues like corroded calipers or uneven disc wear, which may require a test drive. Corrosion risks, particularly in the exhaust system or underbody, should be checked, as prolonged inactivity can exacerbate rust. The lack of detailed MOT findings means a physical inspection is critical to confirm the vehicle’sTrue condition beyond recorded data.
