2020 HYUNDAI I302.0L Petrol

The Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 August 2025 at 26,454 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken three-year clean sheet across all DVLA MOT entries. Annual testing shows low and consistent use for a six-year-old vehicle. The August 2023 test at 11,613 miles, August 2024 at 16,682 miles, and August 2025 at 26,454 miles give a steady annual increment of roughly 5,000 miles, well below the typical national average. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the record, and the sparse clean history offers no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion to scrutinise. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the flawless MOT trail. Low mileage combined with standing periods can mask perished rubber components, seized calipers, or underside structural rust not yet severe enough for tester comment. Examine brake disc condition, coil spring integrity, and exhaust emissions at cold start. Verify service history independently, since MOT passes alone confirm minimum legal standards rather than proactive maintenance. The previous owner clearly met statutory testing but the record implies light use rather than evidence of interval servicing on consumables.
