2016 Hyundai I20 1.1L Diesel · MA13 YDA

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-15 at 61,698 miles confirmed it passed with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2021-11-05 (50,352 miles) and 2020-11-07 (47,546 miles) also passed, though an apparent duplicate entry for 2021-11-05 shows a failed test with no defects recorded. This inconsistency may reflect administrative error, but the absence of recurring issues in later tests suggests the car has remained roadworthy. No advisories or critical faults were noted in the latest assessment, supporting the conclusion of a consistent, well-maintained condition. The vehicle’s mileage of 61,698 miles over 10 years aligns with an average of 6,170 miles annually, a typical figure for its age. MOT records show regular testing intervals, with the longest gap between 2019-10-26 (37,338 miles) and 2020-11-07 (47,546 miles), a period of 13 months and 10,208 miles. This suggests moderate usage without excessive wear. No spikes in mileage or prolonged inactivity are evident, and the lack of defects in the last three tests implies no urgent mechanical concerns. The data reflects a clean maintenance history with no indication of neglect. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, for signs of wear given the vehicle’s age. The rear brakes and brake discs should be checked for uneven wear, as minor issues in this area can escalate without regular monitoring. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion, warrants scrutiny, as rust can develop in hidden areas over time. While the MOT records show no critical faults, the 2021 failed test—despite no recorded defects—merits further investigation to confirm whether it was a procedural error or an unrecorded issue. A pre-purchase inspection should prioritise these systems to ensure long-term reliability.
