2017 Hyundai I40 1.7L Diesel · SH67 OGS

The vehicle presents a clean and stable maintenance record, having passed its most recent MOT on 19 November 2025 at 52,791 miles without a single recorded defect or advisory. This consistent performance across the last five annual inspections indicates a well-maintained example with no recurring mechanical or structural issues. The absence of any flagged items suggests that the previous owner prioritised preventative maintenance and addressed potential failures before they reached the point of test rejection. The recorded mileage of 52,791 miles over nine years averages approximately 5,866 miles per annum, which is notably lower than the typical usage for a diesel-oriented saloon like the Hyundai i40. The steady, incremental accumulation of mileage between the 25,660 miles recorded in November 2021 and the current figure confirms the vehicle has seen regular, light use rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. This pattern of consistent, low-intensity driving generally places less stress on the drivetrain and chassis components compared to vehicles subjected to high-mileage motorway commutes. Despite the impeccable MOT history, a prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that typically degrade through age rather than high mileage. Inspect the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs for signs of perishing or corrosion, as these rubber and metal parts can deteriorate even when a vehicle is driven sparingly. Check the brake discs for surface oxidation or pitting, which often occurs on cars that sit idle for extended periods. While the MOT record provides a strong baseline of reliability, verifying the service history for oil changes and fluid flushes remains essential to ensure the engine and transmission have received adequate care during the vehicle's nine-year lifespan.
