2018 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · EK18 HWC

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 January 2026 at 102,474 miles resulted in a pass following a minor failure for the nearside front headlamp aim being too low. This defect is a simple adjustment issue and does not indicate underlying mechanical degradation. Since January 2023, the car has passed three consecutive inspections without any recorded defects, suggesting the owner has maintained basic safety and emissions standards. The mileage pattern indicates high-intensity use for a city-oriented small car, averaging approximately 12,800 miles per year. Between January 2024 and January 2025, the vehicle covered 13,913 miles, followed by another 13,587 miles in the subsequent year leading up to the 2026 test. This consistent accumulation suggests the car is used regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods. However, the total distance of over 100,000 miles places significant strain on the drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. While the MOT record is clean of structural corrosion or brake failures, the mileage justifies a close check of the shock absorbers and suspension arm bushings for signs of play. Inspect the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear, as the frequent use often leads to accelerated friction. Given the high mileage, verifying the service history regarding timing components and fluid intervals is essential to ensure the mechanical integrity matches the clean MOT history.
