2012 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · CE62 WWF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with an improving maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 August 2025 at 51,143 miles returned a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that previous issues identified during the year have been addressed. This marks a recovery from the January 2025 failure where the car was flagged for multiple faults including a bald tyre, a blown bulb, and an oil leak. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,653 miles per year. The data shows consistent intervals of low usage, with only 3,393 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025, and just 272 miles recorded between the January and August 2025 tests. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods between use can lead to degradation of rubber components and dry corrosion on brake surfaces or fluid seals. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the oil leak noted in January 2025. Although the tester described it as not excessive at the time, persistent leaks on low-mileage engines often indicate aging seals or gaskets that may require monitoring. The recurring issue with the nearside front tyre being worn to the legal limit in both 2024 and 2025 suggests a potential alignment problem or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent further premature tyre wear. The history also highlights a persistent windscreen crack across three separate tests which appears to have finally been resolved or ignored in the latest pass. Given the vehicle's age and low usage, the inspection should also check for structural corrosion on the sills and underbody, as vehicles that sit stationary for long periods can trap moisture. Ensure the washer system is fully functional as this was a noted point of failure in 2024.
