2014 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · KY14 AEO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear improving trend over the last three years. The most recent test on July 25, 2025 at 74,076 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the car is currently in good mechanical condition. This follows a minor failure in June 2024 for simple electrical issues, specifically a position lamp and headlamp aim, which the owner addressed immediately to achieve a clean pass shortly after. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year, which is typical for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The record shows steady progression, moving from 25,864 miles in 2017 to the current 74,076 miles without any significant gaps in usage. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and internal corrosion often associated with prolonged periods of inactivity. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension geometry and alignment based on historical evidence of uneven tyre wear. In 2019 and 2020, the tester flagged front tyres worn on inner edges and bald rear tyres, often indicating a misalignment or potentially worn suspension bushes. While the recent tests show no advisories, a physical inspection of the front wisharms and tie ends remains necessary to ensure these issues have not recurred. Brake maintenance also shows a history of wear that requires attention, noted during the 2021 test for thin rear brake pads. Given the previous instances of low tyre pressure and neglect, the buyer should verify the current thickness of the brake linings and ensure the calipers are not binding. The lack of any structural corrosion or rust failures throughout the record is a positive indicator for the overall integrity of the chassis.
