2008 Hyundai I10 1.1L Petrol · KW08 AET

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 44,043 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates a positive trend in maintenance following a period of recurring minor mechanical and wear issues. While the historical record shows intermittent failures related to consumables and suspension components, the lack of advisories on the latest test suggests the current owner is actively addressing identifying faults before the next inspection cycle. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 44,043 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,447 miles per year. The data shows significant gaps in usage, such as the 6,041-mile interval between November 2022 and November 2024. This low-frequency usage pattern typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based components, evidenced by the perishing and cracking rear tyres noted in the 2024 test. A buyer should specifically inspect the suspension and braking systems, as these areas show a history of instability. The tester flagged corroded coil springs in 2017 and 2020, alongside recurring brake binding issues and uneven application. Although these appear to be rectified, the presence of corrosion on the springs suggests the vehicle may be stored in damp environments or used on salted. Additionally, the history of front tyres worn to the legal limit in 2021 and 2023 indicates that basic consumable maintenance was occasionally neglected until failure, necessitating a thorough check of the current tread depth and sidewall condition.
