2016 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · J40 CBK

The Hyundai i20 presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test, where the tester passed the car at 84,506 miles on 21 May 2025 with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. The only anomalies are two same-day failure entries logged on 5 April 2023 and 21 May 2025 at 67,941 and 84,506 miles respectively, both carrying no recorded defects, which points to administrative or process errors at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,450 miles per year against the 2016 build date, a typical figure for this class. The records show 67,941 miles in April 2023, 76,076 miles by April 2024, and 84,506 miles by May 2025, giving a steady accumulation of about 8,000 to 8,500 miles annually with no sudden jumps or long dormant periods. The data is sparse, with only five entries across three years, but each test returned a clean result aside from the unexplained failure flags. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car is now ten years old, even though the MOT record shows no rust or chassis advisories. The brake calipers, coil springs, and suspension arms warrant a physical check for binding or fatigue that a no-defect test might miss on a light-use vehicle. Verify the two zero-defect failure entries with DVSA to confirm they were clerical and not concealed rectification work.
