2016 Hyundai I20 1.4L Petrol · AX65 HCG

The 2026‑01‑12 MOT at 36,508 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the vehicle remains road‑legal as of today and that the maintenance trend has remained stable since the previous test. The mileage trajectory shows a modest annual average of about 3,650 miles, well below the typical 7,500‑mile figure for a ten‑year‑old car, suggesting limited use or extended periods of inactivity. The record is relatively clean, with only one failure on 2024‑01‑16 at 32,418 miles, where the off‑side front tyre displayed a structural bulge and the near‑side tyre showed perishing, both recorded under item 5.2.3 (d) (ii). Subsequent tests in 2025 and 2026 have returned to a pass status, indicating that the tyre issue was remedied and no further mechanical defects have emerged. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension bushes and coil springs for binding or wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or corrosion, and verify that the tyre bulge has been fully repaired and that the tyre sidewalls are free of cracks. Particular attention to the front wheel arches and chassis rails is advisable, as previous advisories noted minor windscreen damage but no structural rust; however, the tyre failures imply that previous owners may have deferred routine tyre replacement, a factor that can accelerate wear on related suspension components.
