Hyundai, I40, Estate, 2014, Manual, 1685 (cc), 5 doors

Description

Will be ready as soon as registration plates arrive, ordered 11th November.

Had car since April 2026.
Sorned on 10th November 2026.
Service history up to 2022.

Mechanically, never skipped a beat. I went from driving an almost new car to this car and it did not feel like I was driving a 12 year old car.

In the 6 month I've used it, I've experienced no issues round the doors or on motorway. Drives really well. Turned engine over today for the first time since 6th October and it started no problem. I've never been so impressed with a second hand car, especially for the milage.

Cosmetically, it has a few scrapes and a few bits of rust, as shown in photographs, which were there when I purchased from dealer.

Phone can be connected via Bluetooth. Aux port in front. Electric handbrake.

Recent MOT 5th October 2026. See photo for advisories. I spent £500 on welding then lost my licence 2 days later.

There are two none mechanical issues that may or may not be a problem for a buyer but has not been a problem for me.
Firstly, I can only open the boot from inside. It feels like the button is not there when trying to open in the usual way. I've never priced it up to fix as it isn't an issue for me.
Secondly, I only have 1 key and the fob is somewhat damaged. It had electricians tape around it when car went in for mot as the rubber was loose around the lock button. This tape was removed and replaced and now I have been locking the car by pressing the button to open as it locks automatically within about 20 seconds. If I was desperate to sell I would probably have replaced the fob but as I know the car is secure I haven't bothered. All windows work. Mirrors work. No slow punctures. No leaks.

No hidden surprises like the amount of welding required which was a surprise for me, the majority hidden underneath plastic fascia.

I'm in no hurry or need to sell so I would like the amount advertised. Had I not have pulled out that much for the work carried out on MOT I would have dropped the price but because of this, the car will be worth more to me by keeping it for a year and not selling.

I will be cleaning it over the weekend.

Viewings welcome.
