2010 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · CP10 CKF

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passes over the last several years. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2025 at 83,727 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. While a failure occurred in early July 2024, the immediate re-test resulting in a pass suggests that whatever specific fault was identified was rectified promptly rather than representing a chronic trend of mechanical neglect. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,233 miles per year. Between June 2022 and July 2025, the car covered 9,896 miles, which suggests light annual use or long periods of inactivity. This low mileage generally correlates with less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based parts or fluid breakdown due to time. The intervals between tests remain regular, showing a pattern of following the annual MOT schedule despite the low distance driven. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage-related wear. Given the age, it is vital to check for perished rubber bushes, split brake boots, and structural corrosion on the chassis or underbody that a standard MOT test might not flag. Because the car sits frequently, inspect the brake discs for signs of pitting or surface rust and ensure the calipers are not seized. Verify the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking, as low-mile vehicles often retain old rubber before the tread depth reaches legal limits.
