2015 Hyundai I30 1.6L Petrol · EN65 VDA

The Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 28 August 2025 at 80,565 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The August 2025 test shows a pass and a same-day fail with no defects logged, a pattern repeated on 28 July 2023 at 61,573 miles, indicating administrative rejections rather than mechanical faults. No advisories or defects appear on any test, so the vehicle shows no worsening or recurring mechanical trend in the official record. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,324 miles per year against an 11-year lifespan, a typical use profile for this age of car. The records move cleanly from 61,573 miles in July 2023 to 70,512 miles in July 2024 and then to 80,565 miles by August 2025, an even accumulation of about 9,000 to 10,000 miles yearly with no standing gaps or sudden spikes. The sparse, clean ledger suggests the previous keepers maintained basic test compliance, though the absence of advisories means wear items were either within limits or replaced before each examination. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the record's lack of detailed component notes. The repeated no-defect fails point to clerical issues at the testing station rather than owner neglect, yet structural corrosion and exhaust emissions remain unverified by the bare pass results. Confirm the odometer reading matches the 80,565 miles logged in August 2025 and check tyre tread depth and wiper condition, as these consumables fall outside MOT failure only when severely worn. The history implies competent upkeep, but in-person checks on drivetrain seals and underbody integrity remain prudent before purchase.
