2012 Hyundai I40 Style Blue Drive Crdi 1.7L Heavy oil · VE12 GFO

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, demonstrating a stable maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test on 22 January 2026 at 142,588 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This followed a failure just three days prior at 142,485 miles, although the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a potential administrative error or a minor component issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a fourteen-year-old diesel, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between May 2022 at 123,164 miles and January 2025 at 136,685 miles, the car covered roughly 13,500 miles over thirty years, followed by nearly 6,000 miles in the final 14 months. This steady accumulation indicates the vehicle has been in regular use rather than suffering from long periods of standing, which often leads to perished seals or seized brake components. Given that the MOT history is clean of recurring advisories or structural failures, a buyer should focus on high-mileage wear items common to the Blue Drive engines. Inspect the suspension bushes and shock absorbers for lateral wear, as these often degrade around the 140,000-mile mark. Check the brake discs for uneven wear and verify the condition of the exhaust system for corrosion, as the record does not rule out binding calipers or structural rust issues developing between inspections.
