2020 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · EY20 WMA

The vehicle currently holds a valid certificate following a successful test on 6 March 2026 at 40,952 miles. This outcome follows a failure just two days earlier on 4 March 2026, where the tester recorded multiple defects requiring repair. While the long-term history from 2023 through early 2025 shows consistent passes with no major structural concerns, the recent failure highlights a period of deferred maintenance regarding braking and engine management systems. The immediate rectification of these faults before retesting suggests the current owner addressed the issues promptly, restoring the car to a compliant standard without evidence of ongoing deterioration. At six years old, the odometer reading of 40,952 miles aligns closely with average annual usage for this class of hatchback. The records show a steady progression from 20,511 miles in March 2023 to the current figure, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline nor any sudden spikes in distance covered between inspections. This consistent accumulation implies regular driving rather than prolonged storage or excessive high-mileage commuting, which helps preserve the longevity of rubber components and suspension bushings typically found on a Hyundai I10. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the front brake discs alongside the recently replaced pads, as severe pad wear often scores the rotor surface. The previous failure noted an inoperative Malfunction Indicator Lamp and incomplete emissions testing due to rev holding issues, so confirming the engine warning light remains extinguished during a cold start is essential. Although the 2023 test flagged an advisory for uneven rear tyre wear, the subsequent clean tests suggest alignment or suspension geometry was corrected. Inspect the exhaust system for fresh workmanship given the emissions fault, and ensure the service history reflects the brake replacement performed in March 2026 to validate the quality of parts fitted.
