2014 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · T60 HEA

The 2014 Hyundai I10 demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded across five consecutive MOT tests from 2021 to 2025. The most recent 2025 test at 27,335 miles confirmed compliance, with no advisories or failures. This consistent pass rate suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements, though the absence of recorded issues does not preclude hidden wear. The lack of recurring faults indicates no immediate mechanical risks, but the low mileage relative to age warrants scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage progression shows minimal annual usage, averaging 2,278 miles per year. From 23,365 miles in 2021 to 27,335 miles in 2025, the incremental increases suggest infrequent operation, which can accelerate degradation of rubber components, corrosion, and fluid stagnation. Notably, the 2022 test at 25,148 miles preceded a 653-mile jump to 25,800 in 2023, potentially indicating periods of inactivity. While the MOT history lacks defects, this pattern raises questions about long-term component integrity despite the vehicle’s apparent mechanical stability. A buyer should prioritise inspecting suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems for corrosion or wear, as low mileage can mask age-related deterioration. The absence of advisories on tyres, brakes, or steering does not eliminate the need for a hands-on check, particularly given the vehicle’s prolonged periods of inactivity. Fluid levels, battery condition, and electrical systems should also be verified, as these components may degrade without regular use. The MOT record confirms compliance but does not replace a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
