2017 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · EF67 AEC

The 2025‑08‑19 MOT at 114,576 miles passed without major defects, yet the noted near‑side rear direction indicator discolouration and tyres worn close to the legal limit show that the vehicle’s upkeep is stable but not improving. Mileage has risen from 54,924 miles in the 2020 test to 114,576 miles in the 2025 test, a gain of roughly 59,652 miles over five years, averaging about 11,930 miles per year; the jump from 78,822 miles in November 2021 to 86,836 miles in August 2022 shows a rapid accumulation of 8,014 miles in eight months, indicating consistent use rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, test the rear and front brake calipers for binding, inspect the brake discs for corrosion and thickness, verify tyre tread depth and edge wear, and check the exhaust system for leaks and the chassis for structural rust, especially around the wheel arches and subframe. While the car currently satisfies DVSA requirements, the repeated tyre and brake deficiencies suggest previous owners have postponed replacement of wear items, so a detailed physical inspection is essential to confirm that no underlying mechanical deterioration or hidden corrosion compromises safety.
