2012 Hyundai IX20 1.6L Petrol · WF62 VFD

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with all MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent 2025 test at 16,040 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or advisories were flagged across the five-year history, suggesting the previous owner prioritized regular servicing. The absence of critical failures in brakes, suspension, or emissions aligns with the low mileage and controlled usage pattern. The mileage progression shows gradual annual increases, from 11,414 miles in 2021 to 16,040 in 2025, averaging 1,146 miles per year. This low usage rate for a 14-year-old vehicle implies infrequent operation, which may lead to component stiffness or fluid degradation if the car was stored for extended periods. Notably, the MOT records are uninterrupted, with no gaps exceeding 12 months, reflecting a disciplined approach to compliance. However, the lack of high-mileage wear does not eliminate the need for a detailed mechanical inspection. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, as low mileage can mask wear in bushes or coil springs due to limited dynamic stress. Brake systems, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny for binding or corrosion, as these issues may not surface in low-use scenarios. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust or panel damage could go undetected without a physical check. The MOT history confirms no major faults, but the vehicle’s age and mileage profile necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to address potential hidden risks.
