2010 Hyundai IX35 2.0L Diesel · AY60 YKF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the history indicates a pattern of reactive maintenance rather than preventative care. The most recent test in September 2021 at 157,857 miles passed with an advisory for an offside rear tyre showing uneven wear on the inner edge. Given that five years have elapsed since this last recorded test, the vehicle is currently significantly overdue for an MOT, and the current mechanical state of components like the suspension and brakes cannot be verified without a fresh inspection. The mileage progression is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. The data shows a steady increase of 13,656 miles between September 2019 and September 2020, followed by another 14,727 miles in the following year. This regularity suggests consistent road use, though the five-year gap in records since 2021 implies the car may have sat stationary or been sold without testing, which increases the risk of rubber perish, fluid degradation, and brake corrosion. A buyer must specifically inspect the front-end geometry and wheel bearings, as the 2019 failure for a rough offside front wheel bearing indicates a history of suspension wear. The uneven tyre wear noted on the offside rear in 2021 points toward an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require a physical check. Furthermore, given the vehicle's age and mileage, a thorough examination of the structural integrity for corrosion and an assessment of the brake discs and calipers for binding are essential to ensure no significant mechanical faults have developed during the long period without recorded testing.
