2015 Hyundai IX20 1.6L Petrol · WD65 AAU

The most recent MOT test conducted in October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. Looking at the broader history, the vehicle has maintained a very stable roadworthiness trend, achieving four consecutive clean passes since 2022. This suggests a vehicle that has been consistently maintained to a standard that meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures or deteriorating components. The recorded mileage of 31,824 miles is exceptionally low for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,893 miles per year. While this indicates minimal wear on the internal combustion components and the drivetrain, such low annual usage often implies the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. This usage profile shifts the mechanical risk from wear-and-tear to age-related degradation, where components fail due to time and environmental exposure rather than physical mileage. Prospective buyers should conduct a rigorous physical inspection of all rubber components. Although the 2021 advisories regarding cracked tyre treads have since been cleared, it is essential to inspect the current tyre sidewalls for perishing or dry rot, as tyres can degrade chemically over time regardless of tread depth. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and engine mounts, which can harden and crack due to inactivity, potentially leading to knocks or vibrations during a test drive. Further inspection should focus on the braking system and fluid health. Low-mileage vehicles are prone to binding calipers and surface corrosion on the brake discs, which can be identified by a lack of free-rolling or a shuddering sensation under braking. The 12V battery health should be verified, as infrequent cycling often leads to premature failure. Finally, ensure the service history confirms calendar-based oil and filter changes, as engine lubricants degrade over time even when the vehicle is not being driven.
