2021 Hyundai I20 Premium Mhev T-GDI Auto 1.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · PE71 AVU

A continuous record of first-time passes characterises the roadworthiness history of this Hyundai, reflecting steady compliance through three annual inspections, with the most recent test successfully completed on the twenty-eighth of October 2026. While the vehicle has avoided formal test failures since entering the MOT system, the history is punctuated by recurring tyre advisories that point to consistent consumable wear rather than structural degradation. The overall trend indicates stable mechanical participation without catastrophic faults, though the documentation shows that upkeep has been reactive to annual test findings rather than anticipatory. Accumulating forty-one thousand seven hundred and twenty-five miles across roughly five years translates to an average of about eight thousand three hundred miles annually, placing this vehicle squarely within typical UK usage parameters. This steady mileage accumulation avoids both the accelerated mechanical fatigue associated with high-intensity commercial work and the sedentary degradation risks linked to prolonged storage. Mechanically, a standard usage profile means the mild-hybrid powertrain, automatic transmission, and braking systems have experienced normal thermal cycles and operational friction without excessive strain or extended periods of inactivity. Inspection of the physical condition must begin with the rubber components highlighted in the statutory test records, specifically addressing the recent advisories concerning tyre degradation. The 2026 test noted that the nearside rear tyre was worn to two and a half millimetres with edge wear, while the offside rear exhibited surface cracking and perishing, following earlier front-axle tyre wear advisories logged in late 2024. During a physical pre-purchase inspection, verify the tread depth and sidewall integrity across all four corners, and check the alloy wheel rims for any kerb damage that could compromise sealing surfaces or alignment geometry. On the test drive, pay close attention to how the chassis and steering respond over varying road surfaces, listening specifically for any rolling noise or vibration that could indicate uneven tyre wear patterns or underlying wheel bearing fatigue. Since mild-hybrid systems rely heavily on regenerative braking blended with traditional friction components, test the brake pedal feel for smooth progression and ensure the transition between regenerative and mechanical stopping is free from binding or judder. Finally, inspect the inner wheel arches and suspension linkages for any secondary wear while ensuring the vehicle tracks straight without pulling to either side.
