2012 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · DG62 KOW

This 2012 Hyundai i10 presents a stable and reassuring roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT, conducted on 28 August 2025 at 99,748 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend is firmly stable. Across the entire visible history from August 2023 through August 2025, every single pass test returned a completely clean sheet with no advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical care and no emerging deterioration. The mileage accumulation is steady and unremarkable. Between the August 2023 test at 87,283 miles and the August 2024 test at 92,722 miles, the car covered 5,439 miles in twelve months. The following year, from August 2024 to August 2025, it added 7,026 miles, reaching 99,748 miles. This slight uptick is well within normal variance and does not suggest a sudden change in use or neglect. The overall annualised average of roughly 7,125 miles since new is typical for a city car of this age. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. The absence of flagged defects does not eliminate age-related wear. Check the front suspension lower arms and anti-roll bar links for play, as these are common wear points on the i10 platform. Inspect the rear brake calipers for signs of binding, particularly if the car has spent time standing, and examine the exhaust system for corrosion given the vehicle's age. Look beneath the sills and around the subframes for any surface rust that could develop into a structural concern in future tests. The tyre condition and tread depth should also be verified, as consumable wear between tests is not captured in the MOT outcome.
