2021 Hyundai Kona Premium T-GDI Mhev 1.0L Hybrid electric · NU71 UPZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 26 September 2025 at 39,511 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable profile despite a specific mechanical failure just four days prior to that pass. While the car initially failed due to suspension issues, the immediate rectification and subsequent pass indicate the owner addressed the necessary repairs promptly to bring the vehicle back to legal standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical UK usage for a modern crossover, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per annum. Between the September 2024 test at 30,195 miles and the September 2025 test at 39,511 miles, the car covered 9,316 miles. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of standing, which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and internal flat spotting in the braking system. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the offside and nearside front suspension arms. Since the September 2025 failure flagged excessively worn back bushes on both front arms, it is vital to verify that these parts were replaced and that no further play remains in the steering geometry. Given the relatively low mileage of the vehicle, premature wear on suspension bushes may indicate previous exposure to poor road surfaces or a defect in the components themselves. Checking for uneven tyre wear is also advisable to ensure the previous suspension failure did not adversely affect the alignment.
