Our Verdict

Proceed with significant caution. While

Prioritise a thorough inspection of the chassis and underbody. The MOT records explicitly mention corrosion on the suspension, steering, sub-frame, and rear axle, as well as corroded brake pipes. You should request detailed invoices to confirm that the extensive repairs required in March 2026—including the exhaust system, coil springs, and brake discs—were completed to a professional standard.

Given the recurring nature of the corrosion advisories since 2025, negotiate the price to account for potential future structural work or the need for professional rust treatment. Ensure the service history supports the mileage, as the vehicle is now approaching the 100,000-mile threshold.

The 1248cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically offering low fuel consumption for urban driving. Insurance costs for the i20 are generally modest, and the vehicle falls into a standard tax bracket for its age and engine size.

However, maintenance costs for this specific car are likely to be higher than average. The MOT history indicates a high frequency of wear-and-tear items, such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension components, meaning the owner should budget for more frequent repairs than a lower-mileage example.

Focus your inspection on the underbody and brake lines. The MOT history specifically flags corroded brake pipes and general underbody corrosion across the sub-frame and rear axle; these should be checked for structural integrity. Additionally, inspect the rear coil springs and the exhaust system, both of which were major failure points in early 2026.

Check the interior for safety concerns, specifically the offside front seat belt webbing which was noted as frayed or damaged. Finally, verify the battery is now securely mounted, as this was a recorded failure point that could lead to electrical shorts.

This 2011 red Hyundai i20 has recorded 99,710 miles and shows a concerning pattern of deterioration. The MOT history reveals a major failure in March 2026 involving the exhaust, brakes, and suspension, as well as repeated advisories regarding underbody corrosion. While the model generally maintains a decent pass rate, this specific vehicle exhibits several high-wear indicators.

The Hyundai i20 has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 80.7% across 127,637 analysed vehicles.
