Good to see you weren't coughing up a storm driving that moldy car, Lee.

Always good idea to check connectors/broken wires on sensors before ordering new hub etc... Could be bad connection or corrosion causing wild reading like you were getting - when you get new sensor connect it to car wiring and view live data when you spin the hub to confirm before fitting

Excellent video Lee , i20 s good little motors and aways sell well , good luck mate 👍

This little Hyundai looks like it has plenty of life left in it, I’m sure that, once you’ve brought it back to its best, it will make a reliable budget runaround for someone.

Just came back here to find the link for the Topdon. I Purchased it due to your recommendation and hopefully it will solve any future problems. Cheers great channel

Cracking Vlog as ever Lee buddy...I can defo see you making a nice profit on this I20 as its a car u know u can readily sell over and over again...its all about knowing the market and your budgets and you know both very very well...will be great to see the end video of this one once it's all restored and i'm with you thinking it's defo worth £2,395-2,495 when restored...Keep up the great work Lee m8...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

thanks neil yes part 2 will be made on this one and yes hoping for that sort of figure

Back in the day, I was always happy to buy a moss covered, mouldy car (as long as it sounded ok). A morning spent cleaning and valeting always paid off. Because even if it turned out to be a complete Nail, put it back through the Auction and get a couple hundred profit.

It's surprising how a list of to do jobs can mushroom up and up. Sorry about mentioning mushrooms with that mold😅 car should be good for someone when all's done.great vid as usual.

Lee have you got the paper work for this car Nd it's log book if so it should go back up to the car showroom price the highyundie

an i20 couldnt do 157mph if you dropped it from a plane lol

157mph little bit more than it can do, Hyundai say about 110mph but seen on autobahn same car and engine do 190km/h 119mph so not bad out 1.2 and big steep hill it could done more as had revs to go. not bad out 1.2 as ive been in 1.5 diesels top out around 125mph so a small petrol non turbo it dose well and 78bhp and 90nm and 1.1 ton car it cheap car but it a fun car too

How much would you sell it for if one would be interested to buy the car?

BTW is that a red vent plug left in the new battery?

it seems rare rear tailgate not rusting out at bottom window, mines in a few areas but put some that rust treatment on it and it slowed it, but one a cross the road 5 years newer and face lift its very bad, the car did not need a face lift should been a rear lift and really should been a recall a design f up and you go to wales along the coast wow it shocking how bad, but overall mine in center country little areas rust rear tailgate but rest looks ok, rear bumper paint that £160 as lacker pealing and fix on tailgate my local garage says £160 panel so its not crazy cost and mines not that bad compared to some ive seen but mechanically its very good, it is the red but all are off shade red i don't think they true red out factory but looks great after a good clean and polish. buy one avoid a coast car more away from the sea the better but i got lucky with my car under its great and just the rear bumper just lst owner getting thing in out scuffed it and started a peal but paints fine and a tailgate fix so not bad for 2011, this year older far more rust in other areas so i know what to look out for now on mine, but planning on getting newer shape not face lift but one above that but same engine as it has been a very good car

💯

I had an i20 on an EK11 plate from new, so one year newer than that. was a 1.4 auto, great car. best bit about these is the voice activated mobile phone which is better than I have seen on any other car. the colour in the middle of the seats was a £500 option when I bought mine, so obviously I just went with fully black seats. I did think when I had it that the door handles were a silly design, and were bound to lead to the paint getting worn and corrosion, although it never happened while I had it. mine was part ex'd at 3 years for about £ 6,000 which again shows how much car values have gone up since then. good luck with this one.

i had esp light took two years to fully fail so i could get error code but turns of esp,abs,tc but it was only £80 maybe a tad more to get fixed so cheap fix funny thing i think it was same one as this car prob because that side the gutter side , interesting few years with it going off for most two years and magic fix it when i decided to pass by the garage. over all a good car overall mines been very reilable the chain sounds good still but at around 100k mark for sure something to be ready for but for a part what could double life of engine its not a crazy cost, part £350 can get cheaper can get tad more and average time to fit its not much more than a clutch fitted so not big deal but fix it before it goes you have high miles engine and about £600-650 cost my local for job part and work its cheaper than a new engine, and my car worth more now than i got it for, score gone up and they say 2100-2600£ so almost £1k more high end than i paid for it 4 years ago / 53 months mines prob closer to the 2100-2300£ as work it needs not great deal and brand new clutch £500 inc service and mot, not scared spending money on older car if it needs it it needs to be done even tho im looking getting 2015 shape i20 soon

good one Lee. is that model Topdon bi-directional? you're a brave man sitting in there with all those mould spores wizzing around.

KIA/Hyundai seem to have paint issues in the factory. lots of tailgates with paint peel and rust on the lip, not seen the rust around the door handles before though. and for some reason the nature of KIA/Hyundai faults keep reminding me of 1960s/70s BLMC?
