2018 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · WR68 ELV

The most recent MOT passed in January 2026, but it included advisories regarding thinning offside front brake pads and a pitted offside rear inner brake disc. There is a clear and recurring pattern of brake-related issues throughout the vehicle's history. Since 2022, every MOT has noted either thinning brake pads or worn, pitted, and scored brake discs. This indicates that the braking components are a consistent area of concern. The condition of the braking system appears to be worsening. While earlier advisories mentioned general wear, the most recent report shows more specific deterioration, including corrosion on the inner disc and thinning pads, suggesting that maintenance or replacement is becoming increasingly necessary. The vehicle has covered approximately 38,666 miles over eight years, which is low for its age. While this lower mileage may imply less overall wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can also be a contributing factor to the brake issues. Low usage often means the vehicle sits for periods, which can lead to moisture-induced corrosion and pitting on the brake discs. Before purchasing, you should conduct a close inspection of the braking system.
