2018 Hyundai I30 2.0L Petrol · JK12 CAM

The 2018 Hyundai i30 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 15 August 2025 at 80,616 miles which recorded no defects. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly at 73,624 miles on 11 July 2024 and again at 68,304 miles on 5 August 2023. The history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across its passing records, indicating consistent upkeep in the later ownership period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,077 miles per year against the 80,616 miles recorded. The gap between the August 2023 tests and the July 2024 test shows about 5,320 miles covered, while the following year to August 2025 added 6,992 miles. The data is sparse but clean, with no rapid accumulation or prolonged standing evident from the recorded figures. Two failed tests on 2 and 3 August 2023 at 68,287 and 68,297 miles respectively preceded the eventual pass on 5 August 2023, yet the DVSA entries list no defects for either failure. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than latent mechanical faults, though a buyer should verify the original failure reasons through the full DVSA certificate history. Given the absence of recorded advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the braking system, underbody integrity, and tyre condition. The clean record implies previous owners addressed consumables promptly, but undocumented wear on dampers or steering components cannot be excluded without a physical appraisal.
