2022 Hyundai Bayon SE Connect T-GDI Mhev A 1.0L Hybrid electric · WN72 OXV

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status as evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 9 April 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, moving from a clean report in May 2025 to a pass with minor advisories in the present. While the vehicle passed without mechanical failures, the emergence of tyre-related issues indicates the beginning of consumable wear requiring attention to prevent future failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,363 miles per year. Between the May 2025 test at 17,854 miles and the 2026 test at 21,452 miles, the car covered 3,598 miles in under eleven months. This low usage suggests light commuting, which typically preserves the drivetrain and suspension components, though it also risks deforming rubber components if the vehicle remains stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the 2026 test flagged cracking and perishing on both the nearside and offside rear tyres. This condition is common in low-mileage cars that sit for long, as the rubber dries out despite sufficient tread depth. Check the sidewalls for further structural degradation and ensure they are not nearing immediate replacement for safety reasons. Given the lack of recorded defects for brakes or structural issues, the focus should remain on verifying that the service history matches the low-mileage profile.
