2018 HYUNDAI I201.2L Petrol

The 2025‑01‑07 MOT at 73,585 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend. All previous tests from March 2022 through December 2023 also passed without defects, confirming consistent upkeep. The mileage has risen from 47,461 miles in March 2022 to 73,585 miles in January 2025, averaging about 9,200 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for an eight‑year‑old car. Notable gaps are absent; the interval between the March 2023 and December 2023 tests was only nine months and covered 4,526 miles, while the jump from March 2022 to March 2023 added 17,590 miles in a single year, suggesting periods of heavier use. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that have shown recurring wear in similar models: suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or excessive play, rear brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear, and the chassis and wheel arches for rust that could compromise structural integrity. The exhaust system should be examined for corrosion and leaks, and tyre tread depth and condition should be verified, as the mileage pattern indicates regular use that can accelerate consumable wear. Although the MOT history is clean, a thorough in‑person inspection of these areas, together with a review of service invoices and any previous repair work, will confirm whether the vehicle’s condition truly matches its documented record.
