2013 Hyundai I30 1.6L Diesel · BX13 DFN

The 2013 Hyundai i30 is currently roadworthy, having passed the July 18 2023 MOT at 172,093 miles with no defects recorded. The consecutive tests on the same day show a stable maintenance record, with no recurring faults evident. Mileage has risen sharply over the past year, increasing from 152,196 miles at the July 11 2022 test to 172,089 miles at the July 18 2023 failure and 172,093 miles at the subsequent pass, a gain of roughly 19,900 miles in twelve months. This high annual mileage, combined with the vehicle’s 13‑year age, suggests intensive use and accelerated wear on consumables and mechanical parts. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension system, paying close attention to the condition of the bushes and coil springs, as high mileage often leads to premature wear in these components. Inspection of the brake assembly, including discs, pads and calipers for binding or uneven wear, is essential, as is a visual check for structural rust on the chassis, wheel arches and underbody. Given the lack of recorded defects, the vehicle’s condition appears well‑maintained, but the elevated mileage warrants a thorough in‑person assessment of tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition and exhaust integrity to confirm that basic upkeep has been consistently performed.
