2016 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · ET66 AAF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive care. The most recent test in February 2026 at 34,206 miles resulted in a failure for a non-functional rear indicator, incorrect headlamp aim, and front tyres reaching legal limits. While the vehicle passed immediately after these corrections, the recurring nature of consumable-related failures suggests the owner only addresses mechanical issues when forced to by the MOT tester. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the record, moving from 17,000 miles in late 2019 to 34,206 miles in early 2026. However, low mileage can mask age-related degradation of components such as rubber seals and fluid chemistry. The gaps between tests are regular, suggesting the car likely sits stationary for extended periods, which can lead to brake corrosion or perished suspension rubber components. A buyer should specifically inspect the tyre condition and alignment, as the record shows a pattern of uneven wear on the edges in both 2020 and 2026. This often indicates a tracking alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. The braking system requires attention as the March 2025 test flagged thin front brake pads and worn discs on the offside. Additionally, the tyre pressure monitoring system should be verified for functionality, as it failed in both 2022 and 2023, indicating a persistent sensor or electrical fault that may not have been fully resolved.
