2021 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Premium EV Electric · LD71 SVU

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 20 November 2025 at 36,014 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the owner has maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids triggering mechanical or structural failures during the annual statutory testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between the November 2024 test at 23,555 miles and the November 2025 test, the car covered 12,459 miles, showing a recent increase in usage. This suggests regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which is beneficial for electric vehicles where brake seizing and battery flatspotting can occur when cars remain stationary for extended durations. Since the MOT record shows no recurring faults or historical advisories, an in-person inspection should focus on consumable wear that tests do not capture. A buyer should verify the condition of the tyres for uneven wear, as the high weight of an EV can accelerate rubber degradation. Given the mileage, checking the brake discs and pads for surface corrosion is advisable, as low annual mileage can sometimes lead to rust on the rotors. Physical inspection of the suspension bushings and underbody components is also necessary to ensure no impact damage has occurred from hitting potholes or curbs, despite the clean electronic record.
