2018 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · CM05 MCL

The Hyundai i10 has maintained a clean MOT history across four consecutive tests, all passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection in April 2025—just under a year ago—confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current UK standards, though the absence of any recorded issues does not preclude hidden wear. The consistent pass status suggests no recurring mechanical failures, but the lack of advisories also means no proactive maintenance warnings were logged, leaving some components untested for potential degradation. Mileage progression indicates moderate usage, averaging around 8,100 miles annually, which aligns with typical expectations for a vehicle of this age. The intervals between tests are standard, with no unusual gaps or rapid mileage spikes—each MOT fell within the 12-month window without extension. The recorded mileage at the latest test (65,152) suggests the vehicle has been driven steadily without prolonged periods of neglect or excessive wear, though this does not account for private maintenance or off-record servicing. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear items not covered by the test. Focus on suspension components—coil springs, bushes, and dampers—where corrosion or dry rot often develops without visible external signs. Brake discs and calipers, particularly rear, should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as the MOT does not verify functional braking performance beyond basic tread depth. Tyres, though not flagged, may require scrutiny for uneven wear patterns indicating alignment issues or worn suspension. Structural integrity, especially around wheel arches and sills, should be examined for corrosion, as this is a common failure point in compact cars of this age.
