2022 Hyundai I20 Ultimate Mhev T-GDI 1.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · EL13 NLO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-07-31 at 8,102 miles. The maintenance trend shows stability, as no prior issues were flagged in the DVSA records. This suggests the car has been maintained to a standard that meets legal requirements, though the absence of historical data limits insight into long-term care patterns. The single MOT entry indicates a lack of prior inspections, which could reflect either meticulous upkeep or extended periods of inactivity. The recorded mileage of 8,102 miles over four years equates to approximately 2,026 miles annually, significantly lower than average usage. This suggests the vehicle may have been driven infrequently or stored for prolonged periods, increasing the risk of component degradation such as dry-aged rubber seals, battery weakness, or corrosion in the exhaust system. The gap between the car’s manufacture and its first MOT in 2025—over three years—raises questions about its condition during that period, as no inspections were conducted to verify ongoing compliance. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension for stiffness or dry bushes, as low mileage can lead to lack of lubrication in joints. The battery’s health is critical, given the extended inactivity window, and the exhaust system should be checked for internal rust. While the MOT confirmed no immediate faults, the sparse record means hidden issues—such as minor brake binding or minor corrosion—could persist. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic is strongly advised to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity beyond the limited MOT data.
