2010 Hyundai I10 1.1L Petrol · ET59 EYF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward developing mechanical wear and deferred attention. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 98,514 miles passed, it highlighted a persistent front oil leak and two minor lighting defects. These issues mirror faults found during the November 2024 test at 93,891 miles, where an oil leak was also noted, suggesting that the owner is monitoring the symptoms rather than performing preventative repairs. At 98,514 miles over 16 years, the car averages approximately 6,157 miles per year, which is consistent with low-to-moderate usage. The mileage accumulation is steady across the records, with roughly 4,600 miles driven between the November 2024 and November 2025 tests. This consistent usage pattern suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, though the low mileage-to-age ratio means that rubber-based components and seals may be nearing their due to age-related degradation. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the engine bay to identify the source of the oil leak, as it has persisted for two years without resolution. The 2024 record noted an offside front tyre worn on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require checking. Additionally, the offside headlamp lens shows surface damage or product buildup across multiple tests; this should be checked to ensure light output remains sufficient for safe night driving. While no structural corrosion or brake failures were flagged, the recurring lighting and fluid issues indicate a reactive approach to maintenance.
