2015 Hyundai I30 1.6L Diesel · DD13 HAL

The 2015 Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 May 2025 at 89,088 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from May 2022 to May 2024 also passed cleanly. No advisories or recurring mechanical faults appear across the five-year record, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The odometer advanced from 61,819 miles at the May 2022 tests to 72,546 in May 2023, 80,415 in May 2024, and 89,088 in May 2025. That equates to roughly 8,000 to 8,700 miles per year, a steady accumulation with no abrupt jumps or dormant periods. The single anomaly is the duplicate 27 May 2022 entry showing both a fail and a pass at identical mileage; with no defects listed on either, this likely reflects an administrative re-test rather than a genuine mechanical defect. Given the absence of flagged wear in the official history, the record implies the previous owner kept basic consumables and emissions within limits. A clean MOT trail at this age does not, however, confirm component condition beneath the surface. The buyer should still inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness in person, as these degrade silently without triggering advisories until worn past tolerance. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant a visual check despite no tester warnings. Eleven years of UK road salt exposure can compromise sills and subframes ahead of an MOT failure. Verify the exhaust system and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, since the clean record offers no evidence of recent renewal on those items.
