HYUNDAI I102016 · 1.0L Petrol

The Hyundai i10 stands roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA examination on 7 January 2026 at 48,029 miles returned a clean pass and recorded no defects. From the 15 January 2022 test at 28,858 miles through to January 2026, the car cleared five consecutive annual tests without a single advisory or failure. This unbroken record signals consistent mechanical care by previous keepers. Mileage data shows light use for a 2016 vehicle. The odometer climbed from 28,858 miles in January 2022 to 32,790 miles by 16 January 2023, then 39,032 miles on 3 January 2024, 44,243 miles on 7 January 2025, and 48,029 miles on 7 January 2026. Annual increments sit near 4,000 to 5,000 miles, reflecting roughly 4,800 miles per year. No stagnant gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The sparse but clean history confirms statutory checks were met on schedule. No test flagged corrosion, worn suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or exhaust issues. Nevertheless, a decade-old chassis warrants in-person scrutiny of structural integrity and hidden rust on subframes. The tester noted no binding calipers, yet prolonged low mileage can encourage seized handbrake mechanisms or flat-spotted tyres from standing. A buyer should physically inspect these components and verify tyre sidewalls for perishing. The absence of advisories implies basic upkeep was not skipped. Previous owners likely serviced the car to a reasonable standard. Given the low recorded mileage, confirm cambelt and fluid change intervals with documentary evidence. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified technician remains the sensible final step to validate latent condition beyond MOT scope.
