2017 Hyundai I30 SE NAV Crdi 1.6L Heavy oil · WHZ 8098

The 2017 Hyundai i30 SE Nav CRDi presents a clean and stable maintenance trend across its entire MOT history. The most recent test on 25 November 2025, recorded at 102,298 miles, passed with zero defects or advisories. This is not an isolated result. The vehicle has passed every single MOT since at least October 2021 without a single recorded fault, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep and no recurring or worsening issues over nearly five years of documented testing. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the October 2021 test at 37,830 miles and the November 2025 test at 102,298 miles, the car covered approximately 64,468 miles over four years, averaging around 16,117 miles annually during that period. Earlier years show lower annual use, with roughly 11,000 miles per year between 2021 and 2023, suggesting a shift to heavier or more regular use in recent years. There are no suspicious gaps in the MOT record that would indicate long periods of unregistered use or mileage irregularities. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection. The diesel engine and turbocharger should be assessed for smooth operation, oil leaks, and turbo shaft play, particularly given the higher recent mileage. Suspension components including front lower arm bushes, rear trailing arm bushes, and shock absorbers should be checked for wear, as these deteriorate with age and mileage regardless of MOT outcomes. Brake discs, pads, and calipers warrant close inspection for uneven wear or binding, and the exhaust system should be examined for corrosion or DPF-related issues common in diesel vehicles used for mixed driving. The vehicle's underbody and sills should be inspected for structural corrosion, which can develop on vehicles of this age even when surface condition appears sound. Tyre condition, tread depth, and alignment should be verified, along with the operation of all electronic systems including the navigation unit, dashboard warning lights, and lighting assemblies. A clean MOT history is a strong positive indicator, but it does not substitute for a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic, particularly on a diesel vehicle approaching six figures on the clock.
