2011 Hyundai I30 1.6L Diesel · AF11 RYB

The Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 152,856 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 3 April 2025 at 146,570 miles also showed a clean sheet. The only blemish is a failed test on 2 April 2025 at the same mileage, where the record lists no defects; the vehicle passed the next day, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a genuine fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 10,190 miles, typical for a 2011 car. The odometer moved from 133,979 miles in March 2023 to 140,382 in March 2024, then 146,570 in April 2025, and 152,856 by March 2026. The increments are consistent and show no rapid accumulation or standing gaps. The MOT history is sparse on advisories, with five consecutive tests recording no defects or wear flags across suspension, brakes, or corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items the tests did not flag. At 152,856 miles, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant hands-on checks despite the clean record. The 2025 failure with no listed defect points to a possible documentation error; verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm no suppressed advisory exists. Given the absence of recorded structural or mechanical faults, the vehicle reflects basic but adequate upkeep by prior owners. The lack of recurring advisories implies no worsening trend in rust, emissions, or drivetrain condition across the observed period.
