2016 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · EG16 FGZ

The 2016 Hyundai I10 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean MOT pass on 21 October 2025 at 60,138 miles with zero defects recorded. That is a notably strong result for a ten-year-old city car and suggests the most recent keeper addressed the minor issues flagged in earlier years. The record shows no recurring structural, braking, or suspension failures, which is a positive indicator of responsible ownership in the vehicle's later life. The mileage progression is consistent and unremarkable, averaging roughly 6,000 miles per year. Between the November 2023 test at 52,833 miles and the November 2024 test at 56,471 miles, the car covered 3,638 miles in twelve months. The jump from 56,471 miles in November 2024 to 60,138 miles by October 2025 represents 3,667 miles in just under eleven months, confirming steady daily use rather than long periods of inactivity. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record that would raise concern about tampered mileage or neglected servicing intervals. The 2021 test on 28 October at 44,072 miles flagged worn and pitted front brake discs alongside thin front brake pads, both common consumable wear items on a car of this type. By the 2022 test on 2 November at 48,852 miles, those braking defects had cleared, and the only advisory was an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and on its edge, suggesting possible tracking or inflation issues at that time. Neither the brake nor tyre defect reappeared in subsequent tests, indicating the previous owner replaced the discs, pads, and tyre rather than deferring repairs. A buyer should still inspect the front brake components in person, checking disc thickness and pad material remaining, given the car's age and urban use profile. The nearside front tyre and suspension bushes deserve close attention, as uneven tyre wear flagged in 2022 can point to worn tracking or bush deterioration that may have returned. Examine the underside for corrosion, particularly around the subframe and suspension mounting points, as salt exposure over ten years can compromise structural integrity even when the MOT record appears clean. The exhaust system and catalytic converter should also be checked for condition and emissions compliance ahead of the next test cycle.
