Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a sm
When inspecting this specific ix20, pay close attention to the tyres. The MOT history shows a recurring theme of tyre wear and sidewall cracking (noted in 2023 and 2024), so ensure the current set has ample tread and no signs of perishing. Check the windscreen wiper mechanism as well, as this was flagged as worn in 2024.
Negotiate based on the service history documentation. While the MOTs show the car has been kept roadworthy, you should ask for evidence of regular oil changes for the 1396cc petrol engine. Given the minor brake pad advisory in 2023, it is also worth checking the current thickness of the rear pads and discs.
The 1.4L petrol engine is generally positioned in a moderate insurance group and tax band, making it suitable for urban driving and new drivers. Fuel economy for this model is typically average for a small crossover of this era.
Maintenance costs are expected to be standard for a non-premium brand. Most costs will stem from consumables like tyres, brakes, and wipers, which have been the primary focus of previous MOT advisories. Expect an annual running cost to fall within a mid-range bracket for small petrol cars.
Focus your inspection on the 'wear and tear' areas identified in previous tests. Specifically, examine the condition of all four tyres for uneven wear or sidewall cracking, as the 2023 and 2024 records highlighted these issues.
Test the windscreen wipers thoroughly to ensure the mechanism is smooth and doesn't skip. Additionally, because the 2023 MOT noted thin rear brake pads, perform a visual check of the rear braking components to see if they have been replaced since that advisory was issued.
This 2016 red Hyundai ix20 has covered 60,417 miles since its first registration in June 2016. The MOT history shows a pattern of minor wear-and-tear items, such as tyres and wiper mechanisms, rather than major mechanical failures. With its 1.4L petrol engine, it represents a typical small-capacity crossover profile for this age.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Hyundai ix20 to provide a statistical comparison.
