2010 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · ET59 FFG

The vehicle currently meets the roadworthiness requirements as of today, 2026-06-18, but the MOT record indicates a concerning maintenance trend that warrants immediate physical inspection. The most recent test on 2026-01-21 was a failure, immediately followed by a second failure on 2025-01-20, suggesting a lack of consistent upkeep or potential for further deterioration. This pattern of failing tests within the last two years indicates a history of neglected maintenance rather than a single catastrophic event. The mileage data reveals a significant gap in the vehicle's operational history. While the vehicle is approximately 16 years old, it has only achieved 59,746 miles, which is considered low for its age and suggests either very light use or a long period of standing. This low mileage makes it difficult to determine the specific cause of the recent failures without assuming a pattern of wear that would typically increase with age and usage. To assess the current condition, the buyer must inspect the suspension and brakes, which are the most critical components flagged in the record. The history shows binding issues in the rear service brakes, particularly in the offside position, combined with near-total wear on the rear brake discs. These findings indicate that the suspension bushings and brake pads may be approaching the end of their life, with the risk of future failures being high.
