2013 Hyundai IX35 2.0L Diesel · EA63 RKJ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent test conducted in February 2026 at 93,040 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a clean record across the last five annual inspections. This consistency suggests the previous owners have followed a proactive approach to upkeep, addressing potential mechanical issues before they escalated into formal MOT failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,157 miles per year. Between June 2022 at 77,689 miles and February 2026 at 93,040 miles, the car covered 15,351 miles, indicating a steady and predictable usage rate. The lack of significant gaps in mileage suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for extended periods, which often leads to seal degradation or fluid contamination, while the low annual mileage protects the drivetrain and suspension from the accelerated wear seen in higher-mileage examples. While the digital record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age-related wear that MOT tests always capture. A buyer should check the chassis for early structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches, as the vehicle is now thirteen years old. Given the low mileage, the condition of rubber suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls should be scrutinized, as these materials can perish and crack over time regardless of the distance driven.
