2018 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · AX67 BYZ

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 23 January 2026 with no defects recorded. Looking at the broader history, the maintenance trend is exceptionally stable, with the vehicle consistently passing its annual inspections. The only significant entry occurred in January 2024, where the car failed on a dangerous defect regarding front brake pad thickness, though this was rectified immediately to achieve a pass. This pattern indicates a vehicle that is generally kept in roadworthy condition, with failures limited to predictable wear and tear consumables. With a recorded mileage of 49,077 miles over approximately eight years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,135 miles per year. This is a typical usage profile for a city car of this age and suggests a balanced duty cycle. There are no indications of excessive mileage accumulation that would cause premature drivetrain fatigue, nor is the mileage low enough to suggest the vehicle has suffered from prolonged periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished seals. Regarding the braking system, the 2024 failure for dangerously thin pads and the accompanying advisory for pitted or scored discs highlight a period of neglected consumable replacement. While these were addressed at the time, a prospective buyer should perform a tactile check of the brake pedal for any sponginess and listen for grinding or whistling during low speed braking on the test drive. Any vibration through the steering wheel during deceleration could indicate that the discs were not replaced alongside the pads, potentially leading to uneven wear or warping. Given the overall clean MOT record, attention should shift to age related degradation and calendar based maintenance. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for fine cracking or perishing, as rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. You should also verify the service history to ensure that engine oil and coolant have been changed according to the manufacturer's time intervals rather than just mileage. Finally, check the 12V battery health and inspect the underside for any surface corrosion on the suspension components or exhaust system to ensure the vehicle's structural integrity remains sound.
