2018 HYUNDAI I302.0L Petrol

The Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 October 2025 at 46,983 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across five consecutive annual examinations. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 5,873 miles against the vehicle's eight-year age, confirming light use. The records show steady, low accumulation: 18,712 miles on 21 September 2021, 26,668 on 16 September 2022, 33,441 on 12 October 2023, 39,977 on 14 October 2024, and 46,983 on 10 October 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear. The clean sheet across every test suggests the previous owner kept basic upkeep current and avoided deferred consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's low mileage and likely periods of standing, which can allow corrosion or seized components to develop unseen. The MOT history flags no advisories on exhaust emissions, structural integrity, or binding calipers, so no recurring fault pattern demands correction. Pre-purchase checks should confirm tyre sidewall condition, underbody rust, and fluid intervals, since DVSA tests record only visible failures. The absence of any defect entries implies sound previous care, but low-use vehicles often hide aged rubber and flat-spotted tyres that a static test will not reveal.
