2018 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · FN18 ORK

The 2018 Hyundai i10 presents a stable and highly reassuring maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass at its most recent MOT on 15 October 2025. Recorded at 30,811 miles, the test yielded zero defects or advisories, mirroring the outcome of every preceding annual inspection. This unbroken chain of fault-free assessments indicates a vehicle that has been consistently maintained to a roadworthy standard, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues demanding attention. Evaluating the mileage pattern against its age reveals exceptionally light usage, averaging roughly 3,851 miles per year. The recorded figures show a steady, incremental accumulation rather than erratic spikes: 13,661 miles in October 2021, 17,176 miles in October 2022, 20,979 miles in October 2023, 25,407 miles in October 2024, and 30,811 miles in October 2025. Such low annual mileage typically points to short, urban journeys, which can sometimes prevent engines and exhausts from reaching optimal operating temperatures, though the clean MOT record suggests this has not yet resulted in measurable deterioration. Despite the flawless MOT history, a physical inspection remains prudent given the vehicle's specific usage profile. Low-mileage city cars often suffer from premature wear on consumables like brake discs and calipers due to corrosion from standing rather than friction wear, alongside perished rubber suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls from prolonged static loading. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the tyre dates and tread depth, check for binding brakes during a test drive, and inspect the exhaust system for early signs of corrosion that a short-trip driving style might accelerate.
