HYUNDAI I302016 · 1.6L Diesel

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 9 December 2025 at 52,696 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last two years, suggesting the car is currently in a mechanically sound state. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,270 miles per year. Between 7 March 2024 and 9 December 2025, the odometer increased by 6,916 miles. This low annual usage reduces the expected wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes lead to issues with perished rubber seals or battery degradation if the car spent long periods stationary. The MOT history is unusually sparse regarding technical failures. While the record shows failures on 7 March 2024 and 31 December 2024, the lack of recorded defects for those specific tests suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly during the inspection. There are no recurring mentions of corrosion, brake binding, or suspension wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on items that deteriorate regardless of mileage. Check for tyre perishing or flat spots due to the low usage pattern. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and verify the condition of the auxiliary belts and fluids. Since the DVSA record shows no structural or mechanical red flags, the primary goal is to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from under-use.
