2012 Hyundai IX35 1.7L Diesel · EJ62 JHO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of consistent maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 November 2025 at 81,598 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of successful testing throughout late 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable tolerances over the last two years of operation. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between January 2023 (65,706 miles) and January 2024 (71,806 miles), representing only a 6,100-mile interval over twelve months. However, the vehicle then covered 7,768 miles between the November 2024 test and the November 2025 test. This low annual mileage suggests limited wear on the drivetrain and engine, though the long intervals between use also indicate the vehicle may have sat for extended periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components or seized brake components. The history shows a single failure on 6 January 2023 at 65,706 miles, which was rectified immediately to secure a pass that same day. Since subsequent tests recorded no advisories or defects, the specific mechanical fault remains unknown without a physical inspection. A buyer should still verify the absence of surface corrosion on the chassis and suspension arms, which are common in vehicles of this age regardless of mileage. Checking the condition of suspension bushes and the state of brake calipers is advisable, as low-mile vehicles often suffer from uneven wear or perished seals.
