2018 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · RO18 ADV

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend and a stable maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 6 October 2025 at 21,466 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of first-time passes dating back to March 2022, indicating a car that has been kept in a high state of mechanical repair. The mileage is remarkably low for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,683 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and light, increasing by only 2,320 miles between the March 2024 test at 15,872 miles and the March 2025 test at 19,146 miles. Such low usage suggests the car has avoided the typical wear and tear associated with high-mileage commutes, though it may have spent significant periods stationary. Because the MOT history is entirely devoid of advisories, there are no recurring mechanical faults to flag. The absence of mentions regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush perishment, or tyre tread wear is unusual for a vehicle of this age, even with low mileage. This suggests a diligent previous owner who likely addressed consumable wear before the official inspections. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber seals, battery health, and potential flat spots on the tyres due to long periods of standing. Verify that the brake calipers are not seizing and that the engine oil shows no signs of moisture contamination, which can occur when a car is under-utilised.
