HYUNDAI I302013 · 1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing results. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 83,330 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in early 2025 and 2023, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters over the last several years. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per annum. A notable gap of nearly 5,500 miles occurred between January 2024 and February 2025, followed by a more rapid accumulation of 8,900 miles between February 2025 and January 2026. This regularity suggests predictable usage patterns which typically helps prevent uneven wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. The single failure on January 8, 2024 at 68,930 miles indicates a specific defect that was rectified immediately before the retest the following day. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking components, despite the clean MOT record. Given the age of the vehicle, rubber bushes and bushings may develop cracks or perish that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they become significant. Since the record shows no recurring advisories, the previous owners likely were proactive with maintenance, but a tactile check of the road test is necessary to identify any binding calipers or worn coil springs. Checking the chassis for early-stage corrosion is advisable to ensure the structural integrity remains sound as the vehicle enters its second decade of service.
