2018 Hyundai I30 1.4L Petrol · LG18 FFL

The vehicle currently fails roadworthiness tests, and the MOT history indicates a clear trend of worsening mechanical condition rather than stable maintenance. The most recent test on 2026-05-26 at 75,548 miles was passed, but this was preceded by a significant failure on 2025-06-11 at 64,763 miles, which was followed by two further failures in 2025 and 2024. This sequence demonstrates that the vehicle has not been properly maintained since the 2025 test, suggesting a lack of regular servicing and a progressive deterioration of the drivetrain and suspension. The mileage pattern reflects rapid accumulation without adequate intervals, creating a significant gap between the 2025 and 2024 tests where the vehicle was tested at 55,231 miles. This sharp drop-off in mileage suggests that the owner may have driven the car less frequently or that the vehicle has been sitting unused for extended periods, leading to accelerated wear on components such as brakes, tyres, and the windscreen wiper assembly. Given the recurring faults including nearside windscreen wiper issues, nearside rear tyre separation, offside rear tyre cracking, thin brake pads, worn brake discs, and structural damage to the offside rear tyre, a buyer must inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and corrosion. The presence of a cracked or perishing rear tyre and a pitted or scored front brake disc raises serious concerns regarding the structural integrity of the rear axle and suspension, which may require immediate professional assessment to prevent further catastrophic failure. The history indicates that the owner has likely been neglecting routine checks, as the vehicle continues to show signs of wear that are not typical for a 2018 model.
