Hyundai Ix20 SE Blue Drive (2017)
2017 Hyundai Ix20 SE Blue Drive
CarHunch analysed 106 real MOT records for the 2017 Hyundai Ix20 SE Blue Drive. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2017 Hyundai ix20 SE Blue Drive passes its MOT on the first attempt 81.1% of the time, marginally above the UK average of 80%, with zero vehicles in this cohort ever presenting a dangerous defect — a genuinely clean safety record. At just under 34,000 miles median mileage for a seven-year-old car, these examples are lightly used, which explains the minimal failure rate of 0.1 per vehicle and virtually no advisory issues.
This is a low-mileage cohort that naturally shows fewer problems, so don't assume all ix20s of this age will perform identically at higher mileage. If you're considering one, verify its service history and check that it hasn't been sitting idle; the real test comes when these cars rack up serious miles.
What to check before buying a 2017 Hyundai Ix20 SE Blue Drive
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
