2011 Hyundai I30 1.4L Diesel · OV61 BVH

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-08 at 157,455 miles recording a pass and no defects. Earlier tests in 2025-10-07 and 2024-10-08 also showed passes and fails with no recorded issues, suggesting potential administrative inconsistencies or minor non-critical failures. The absence of defects in the latest test implies no urgent mechanical concerns, though the recurring fails without explanation warrant scrutiny of the vehicle’s compliance history. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging 10,497 miles annually. The 143,174-mile 2023 test to 157,455-mile 2025 test reflects steady accumulation, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. The MOTs are spaced approximately 12 months apart, indicating consistent maintenance practices. However, the lack of detailed defect records limits insight into potential wear patterns, particularly in high-mileage components like brakes or suspension. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as these often degrade over time. The exhaust system and structural integrity, particularly around the chassis, merit close examination to identify hidden rust or damage. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the absence of defect details necessitates a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical condition.
