Our Verdict
This is a strong candidate for buyers seeking a diesel hatchback with a consistent recent MOT record. The vehicle shows a clean history over the last three years, though buyers should verify its service intervals.
When inspecting this specific i30, focus on the diesel engine's service history, particularly regarding timing belt intervals and oil changes, as the mileage is higher than the statistical average for this model. While the recent MOTs show no defects, you should check for any signs of uneven tyre wear or brake pad thinning, which are common failure points for this model type.
Negotiate based on the mileage; since it has covered significantly more than the 7,184-mile annual average, ensure the vehicle has been maintained to handle higher-than-average usage. Ask for evidence of recent brake and tyre replacements, as these are the most frequent reasons for failure in the wider Hyundai i30 data set.
The 1582cc diesel engine is generally efficient for motorway driving, which aligns with its higher-than-average mileage. You can expect competitive fuel economy, though actual costs will depend on your driving style and load.
Insurance groups for the i30 vary, but the 1.6L diesel is typically mid-range. Maintenance costs should be predictable, but be prepared for more frequent tyre and brake component replacements given the model's aggregate failure trends. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, and maintenance, fall in the £1,100-£1,400 range.
Based on the aggregate data for the Hyundai i30, pay close attention to the suspension arms, brake pads, and tyre condition. Although this specific vehicle has had no defects recorded since its 2022 failure, these components are the most common reasons for MOT failures across the 111,339 vehicles analysed.
Check the tyres for even tread depth across the width of the tyre to rule out suspension issues. Given the diesel engine and the mileage of 64,074, inspect the exhaust system and look for any signs of soot buildup or unusual noises that might indicate issues with the diesel particulate filter (DPF).
This 2016 Hyundai i30 (EO66CCY) is a black 1.6L diesel model that has covered 64,074 miles as of its last MOT in August 2025. The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT record for the three consecutive tests following a failure in 2022. Its mileage is notably higher than the model average of 7,184 miles per year, suggesting it has been used more frequently for longer journeys.
The Hyundai i30 shows a 78.2% average MOT pass rate across a large sample size, with common issues relating to consumables like tyres, brakes, and suspension.
