2018 HYUNDAI I201.4L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record as of the most recent test on 20 March 2026 at 23,305 miles. The absence of advisories or failures in the last two years indicates that the vehicle has been kept in a consistent state of roadworthiness. While a failure was recorded on 13 March 2025 at 21,794 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests a minor, rectified issue that did not persist into subsequent inspections. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,913 miles per year. The data shows a steady, incremental increase in mileage from 16,299 miles in March 2023 to 23,305 miles in March 2026. This pattern suggests light, predictable usage rather than long periods of stationary neglect, which is generally positive for mechanical components like timing belts or fuel systems that can degrade when sitting idle. Because the MOT history shows no recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, the vehicle appears well-maintained. However, the low annual mileage means the car has not been subjected to regular motorway driving, which can sometimes lead to less frequent inspection of chassis components. A physical inspection should focus on checking for any signs of corrosion on the underbody and ensuring that rubber components like tyres and wiper blades have not perished due to age rather than wear. A buyer should verify that the service history matches this low-mileage usage. While the MOT record is clean, the lack of high-speed mileage can sometimes mask issues with tyre flat-spotting or battery health. Given the consistent pass results, the vehicle shows no evidence of structural integrity concerns or worsening mechanical trends.
