2016 Hyundai I30 1.6L Petrol · EF66 MPV

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in November 2025 at 58,766 miles resulted in a pass following an immediate failure for multiple defects. While the car currently meets the legal standard, the recurring failures for minor consumable items, such as light bulbs and tyre condition, suggest that the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues when they became an obstacle to passing the MOT test. At 58,766 miles, this ten-year-old Hyundai has covered low mileage, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with roughly 4,200 miles driven between December 2023 and November 2024, and another 3,300 miles leading into the latest test. This low annual mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, but it increases the risk of rubber components perishing due to age, which is evidenced by the repeated failures regarding the cracked nearside rear tyre across consecutive years. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of all tyres, as the nearside rear tyre was flagged for cracking and insufficient tread depth in 2025 after already failing for damage in 2024. The repeated mention of discoloured indicators and a damaged registration plate suggests a lack of attention to cosmetic and functional trim. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should also check for corrosion on the brake discs and the condition of suspension bushes, as vehicles that sit for long periods often suffer more from material degradation than those used frequently.
