2020 Hyundai Kona 1.0L Petrol · GU20 CDF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred attention regarding consumable components. The most recent test in May 2026 at 47,602 miles passed despite advisories for pitted rear brake discs and thin pads on both rear sides. This follows a pattern seen in the 2025 test at 33,749 miles, where similar rear brake issues were noted, indicating that the owner addresses these components only when flagged rather than during routine service intervals. The mileage progression is consistent with a low-mileage profile, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap in data between the 2023 test at 9,037 miles and the April 2024 test at 20,520 miles, where the vehicle covered over 11,000 miles in a single year. Since then, the usage has remained at a steady rate of roughly 13,000 miles annually, which explains the gradual wear on tyres and braking hardware observed in later records. A buyer should specifically inspect the rear braking system, as the recurring reports of pitted discs and thin pads across two years suggest the components may be nearing the end of their effective life. The windscreen shows persistent damage that was noted in both 2025 and 2026, which warrants a close look for cracks that could eventually compromise structural glass integrity. Given the 2025 advisory regarding edge wear on the front tyres, a physical check of the suspension geometry is necessary to ensure no underlying alignment issues are causing uneven tyre degradation.
