2015 HYUNDAI IX201.4L Petrol

The Hyundai IX20 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 December 2025 at 30,378 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from December 2022 through December 2024 also passed cleanly. The single failure on 5 December 2023 at 24,387 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault with the vehicle itself. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for an eleven-year-old car. The odometer moved from 21,885 miles in December 2022 to 27,840 miles in December 2024, then to 30,378 miles by December 2025, averaging roughly 2,762 miles per year. No rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps appear across the record, and the clean pass history with no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion points to a vehicle that has seen gentle, infrequent running rather than neglect. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of components prone to deterioration through standing. Low annual mileage and long idle periods accelerate perishing of rubber suspension bushes, brake caliper seizing, and moisture-driven corrosion on structural underbody members even when MOT advisories are absent. The tester logged no brake disc scoring, exhaust emissions faults, or coil spring fractures, but these items warrant physical checks given the car's dormancy between tests. The absence of recurring mechanical defects across five years of testing suggests the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance. Verify the 5 December 2023 failure reason via DVSA paperwork, then confirm tyre sidewall condition and brake binding on a road test before purchase.
