2010 Hyundai IX20: petrol or diesel?
Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.
Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.

Handbrake recall (cars to 2012)
Water could corrode the rear calipers so the handbrake wouldn't hold on a hill. Just under 6,000 cars were recalled in October 2012. Few other faults are reported.
At the viewing: Test the handbrake on a slope, and ask whether the recall was done.
