2021 Hyundai I20 Element T-GDI 1.0L Petrol · ND71 AEE

The vehicle is currently in a stable and roadworthy condition. The most recent MOT test on 15 August 2025 at 29,828 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similar clean pass on 20 August 2024, indicating a consistent standard of maintenance and no emerging mechanical failures over the last two years. The mileage is notably low for a five year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,966 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between the August 2024 test at 18,825 miles and the August 2025 test at 29,828 miles, where the car covered 11,003 miles in a single year. This suggests a shift in usage patterns, moving from very light use to a more standard annual mileage. The absence of any advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or tyre tread suggests the previous owner has kept up with basic consumables. However, the low overall mileage and the recent spike in use mean a buyer should check for signs of perishables that degrade with age rather than wear. Specifically, inspect the tyre date codes for cracking and check the brake calipers for any sticking or corrosion that can occur during periods of low activity. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean, there are no recurring faults to flag. A physical inspection should focus on fluid levels and service intervals to ensure the engine oil and filters were changed regardless of the low mileage. The structural integrity appears sound based on the lack of corrosion flags in the DVSA data.
