2012 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · EO62 ADX

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no recorded defects in its most recent MOT on 2025-10-03 at 106,286 miles. Previous tests from 2024-10-04 (96,909 miles), 2023-10-02 (88,594 miles), and 2022-10-04 (79,351 miles) also passed without issues, despite a failed test on the same date and mileage in 2022. The absence of defects in subsequent inspections suggests any prior concerns were resolved. The vehicle’s maintenance pattern indicates consistent adherence to testing requirements, with no evidence of prolonged neglect. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,592 miles annually. Tests are spaced approximately 12 months apart, reflecting regular servicing. No gaps in the record or sudden mileage spikes are evident, which reduces concerns about hidden wear. The clean history implies the previous owner maintained the car to regulatory standards, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into minor wear trends. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which can degrade over time without triggering MOT failures. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be inspected for uneven wear, as these often accumulate issues beyond basic testing. Structural corrosion, particularly in the chassis or body seams, warrants scrutiny, as it may develop unnoticed in older vehicles. The MOT record provides no indication of such issues, but physical inspection remains essential to confirm long-term durability.
