2019 Hyundai IX20 1.6L Petrol · BA68 ACU

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 6 January 2026 at 12,195 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a series of successful inspections dating back to 2022, suggesting a consistent standard of upkeep and no recurring issues with structural integrity or mechanical components. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,742 miles per year. The records show a steady, albeit slow, progression from 6,779 miles in January 2022 to 12,195 miles in early 2026. While this low usage indicates light road use, the significant gaps between tests, such as the period between January 2024 and January 2025, suggest the car may spend extended periods stationary. Because the MOT history is entirely free of advisories, there are no documented trends regarding brake wear, suspension bushes, or tyre degradation. However, vehicles with such low annual mileage and long periods of standing often face specific risks. You should inspect the vehicle for signs of age-related deterioration that MOT tests do not always capture, specifically checking for perished rubber components in the suspension and engine bay, or seized brake calipers due to lack of use. A physical inspection should also focus on the battery health and fluid degradation. Long periods of inactivity can lead to moisture ingress in the oil or brake fluid and can cause battery terminals to corrode. While the MOT data indicates a well-maintained vehicle, the low mileage profile necessitates a close look at the tyres for sidewall cracking and a check of the service history to ensure that oil changes were performed based on time intervals rather than just mileage.
