2022 Hyundai I20 Premium Mhev T-GDI 1.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · FP22 LPX

The overall roadworthiness status of this Hyundai i20 reflects a stable maintenance trend, though the record contains a distinct administrative anomaly. During the May 2025 test at 16,019 miles, the vehicle passed with zero defects recorded. The DVSA history also lists a failed test on the exact same date and mileage, yet this failure similarly shows no defects recorded. A genuine MOT fail requires a defect to be logged, indicating this duplicate entry is a clerical error rather than a mechanical rejection. The vehicle is now outside its valid MOT window, as the certificate expired in May 2026. The mileage pattern points to exceptionally light use. Accumulating 16,019 miles over four years equates to roughly 4,000 miles annually, significantly below the national average. Such low mileage typically results from short urban trips or prolonged periods of standing, which can cause specific issues like brake disc corrosion, tyre flat spots, and battery drain. The recorded mileage has remained static at 16,019 miles since the May 2025 test, meaning the vehicle has either covered negligible distance in the last fourteen months or has not been presented for its required annual test. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must physically inspect the vehicle to verify its current condition, particularly given the extended period since its last examination. Low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from perished rubber suspension bushes and deteriorating tyres due to age rather than wear. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, a common issue when cars sit unused, and check the exhaust system for moisture-induced corrosion. The contradictory same-day pass and fail with no defects warrants a direct inquiry with the seller to clarify whether a genuine fault was rectified or if the record simply contains a duplicate administrative error.
