2012 Hyundai IX20 1.6L Diesel · SW61 BWK

The Hyundai iX20 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 December 2025 at 119,416 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the two prior annual tests in December 2024 at 111,169 miles and September 2023 at 104,728 miles also passed clean. The only blemish is a failed entry logged on 28 September 2023 at 104,728 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same day, which points to an administrative or presentation error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. The mileage pattern sits close to typical use for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,530 miles per year. The record moves from 97,797 miles in October 2022 to 104,728 miles by September 2023, then to 111,169 miles in December 2024 and 119,416 miles in December 2025. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests spans nearly eleven months, yet annual coverage holds thereafter with no sudden accumulation spikes. The sparse, clean history gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred mechanical work. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and mileage. The MOT data flags no corrosion, binding calipers, or exhaust emission issues, but the 2023 duplicate failure with no listed defect warrants a check of the VIN and test log to confirm it was a clerical anomaly. Verify tyre tread depth and wiper condition as routine consumables, though no advisories suggest these were within limits at each test.
