2012 Hyundai I30 1.6L Diesel · EF62 EEO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving maintenance standards in recent months. The most recent test in June 2025 at 116,946 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, marking a significant improvement from previous years where mechanical issues were flagged. This suggests that the current owner has addressed outstanding faults and is maintaining the vehicle to a standard that passes clean inspections consistently. At 116,946 miles over 14 years, the car averages approximately 8,353 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age. The record shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 6,000 miles covered between August 2024 and June 2025. This steady mileage accumulation indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seized brake calipers or degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and tyres, given the recurring issues noted in 2022 and 2023. The tester previously identified front tyres worn on edges and a deteriorated offside front anti-roll bar linkage, which point indicate potential alignment issues or premature wear of suspension bushes. While the recent tests are clean, a physical check should verify the current condition of the rubber boots and check for any uneven wear on the current tyres to ensure the previous faults have not returned.
