2011 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · AV61 DWA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 62,767 miles passed, it introduced new mechanical concerns regarding a nearside front wheel bearing with play and uneven front tyre wear. This follows a failure in October 2024 for significant brake-related defects, suggesting that components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure rather than being serviced during scheduled intervals. At 62,767 miles, this 15-year-old Hyundai shows notably low mileage, averaging approximately 4,184 miles per year. This low usage often correlates with less engine and drivetrain wear, but the record shows significant gaps in activity. For instance, between September 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered only 2,745 miles over a thirteen-month period. Such long periods of low use can lead to the degradation of rubber components and the corrosion of brake surfaces, consistent with the pitting seen in the history. A buyer must closely inspect the front suspension, as the record shows a recurring issue with ball joint dust covers appearing in both 2022 and 2023. The failure to replace these components across multiple tests suggests potential neglect of the suspension assembly. The nearside front wheel bearing play identified in November 2025 requires immediate verification to prevent further damage or component failure. Additionally, the uneven wear on the front tyres necessitates a wheel alignment check to ensure a geometry fault is not causing the premature edge wear noted in the latest test.
