2010 Hyundai I20 1.2L Petrol · DA60 CWP

This 2010 Hyundai i20 has a mileage history that is typical for its age, suggesting consistent use rather than long periods of standing or excessive wear. The most recent MOT from February 2024 was a pass, though it noted front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The primary risk pattern is a recurring neglect of basic consumables, specifically tyres. This issue appeared in 2022 and reappeared in 2024, suggesting a reactive rather than proactive approach to maintenance. More concerning is the 2022 failure, which revealed a binding rear brake, worn brake pads, and a split CV boot. While these were resolved for the pass, the presence of an oil leak in 2023 indicates emerging engine wear. Overall, the vehicle's condition trend appears stable but mediocre. It is not rapidly deteriorating, but the repeated tyre advisories and the previous brake and drivetrain failures suggest the car has been maintained to a minimum legal standard rather than a high mechanical one. A buyer should first inspect the current tread depth and condition of all four tyres. Check for any active oil leaks around the engine and listen for clicking sounds from the front drive shafts during low-speed turns to ensure the previously split CV boot was properly replaced.
