2017 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · EJ17 CFL

The 2017 Hyundai I10 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 15 May 2026 at 39,244 miles with zero defects recorded. That result marks a notable shift from the preceding years, where tyre wear advisories appeared consistently between 2023 and 2025. The most recent test suggests the current owner has addressed those recurring issues, and the vehicle is currently in strong mechanical order with no outstanding concerns flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern tells a story of genuinely low use. Over nine years, the car has covered just 39,244 miles, averaging roughly 4,360 miles per year. The annual increments are steady and modest: 3,826 miles between April 2022 and April 2023, 3,883 miles between April 2023 and April 2024, and 1,892 miles between April 2024 and June 2025. The final jump of 3,134 miles between June 2025 and May 2026 is slightly higher but still well within normal use for a small city car. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record, and the mileage progression aligns with the test dates without inconsistency. The recurring theme across the MOT history is tyre wear, specifically on the front axle. In April 2023 at 30,335 miles, both front tyres were flagged as worn close to legal limits and worn on the edges, indicating possible tracking misalignment or underinflation over time. The following year at 34,218 miles, only the nearside front tyre drew the same advisory, and by June 2025 at 36,110 miles, the concern shifted to the offside rear with a nail puncture rather than wear. The clean May 2026 result implies tyres have been replaced or rotated, but a buyer should still inspect the current tyre condition and request evidence of any recent wheel alignment. Given the low annual mileage, suspension components such as shock absorbers, coil springs, and bushes may have deteriorated from age and standing rather than use, so a physical inspection of those parts is advisable despite the clean MOT outcome. Brake discs, pads, and calipers also warrant a close look, as infrequent driving can lead to surface corrosion and uneven pad deposits that a standard MOT visual check may not fully reveal.
