2014 Hyundai IX35 1.7L Diesel · GL14 HFO

The 2014 Hyundai IX35 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent October 2025 assessment at 125,727 miles. The 2022 September test, which failed without recorded defects, appears isolated, as subsequent checks from 2022 to 2025 show consistent compliance. No recurring mechanical or structural issues are evident in the history, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage, averaging 10,477 miles per year over 12 years. The 2022 September test at 90,167 miles recorded a failure but no defects, followed by a 281-mile jump to 90,448 miles just 13 days later, implying potential short-term usage or a quick repair. Subsequent tests show steady accumulation, with 15,297 miles between 2022 and 2023, and 12,814 miles between 2023 and 2024. The final 7,168-mile increase to 125,727 miles by 2025 suggests regular, moderate use without abrupt wear patterns. While the MOT records lack specific mechanical failures, buyers should verify the condition of suspension components, such as coil springs and bushes, which can degrade over time, and inspect brake discs for uneven wear, as these are common issues in older SUVs. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the history is positive, but a physical inspection is recommended to confirm the integrity of the exhaust system and body panels, which are prone to rust in older vehicles. No immediate risks are indicated, but thorough checks are advised to ensure long-term reliability.
