2021 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · KY21 ZPM

This 2021 Hyundai i20 has a clean MOT record with no outright failures, but there is a recurring, non-standard pattern that warrants caution. Every single test, including the most recent one in February 2026, has required the headlight adjuster to be altered to recheck the lights. This suggests a persistent issue with the headlight aim or the internal adjuster mechanism itself, which has never been permanently resolved. The condition trend appears stable but with a specific, unresolved fault. The only other noted items were a split rear wiper in 2025 and a near-side rear tyre worn close to the legal limit in 2026. The tyre wear is a normal consumable, but the headlight issue is the main risk. It has not worsened into a failure, but it has not improved either, indicating the seller or previous keeper has not addressed the root cause. The mileage of 21,347 over roughly five years works out to about 4,269 miles per year, which is low. This is ambiguous: it could mean the car has had gentle, short-trip use, which is generally easier on the engine and drivetrain, or it could mean periods of standing. Low mileage does not automatically mean better condition, and the headlight problem suggests a lack of thorough pre-MOT preparation or a minor electrical/mechanical fault that has been ignored.
