2017 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · FP67 WVR

The 2017 Hyundai I10 presents a stable and largely reassuring roadworthiness profile, culminating in a clean pass at 27,697 miles on 17 April 2026. That most recent test recorded only a minor advisory for a cut in the nearside rear tyre, with no dangerous defects. The maintenance trend is broadly improving. A failed test on 19 April 2025 for ineffective front wipers was immediately retested and passed the same day, indicating a swift, low-cost fix rather than a lingering fault. Earlier advisories, such as a worn offside rear brake disc noted in October 2024, appear to have been managed, as no related defects surfaced in the subsequent 2026 test. The record suggests a vehicle kept in reasonable mechanical order. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old city car, averaging roughly 3,077 miles per year. The 3,797-mile jump between the April 2025 and April 2026 tests is the largest single-year increase in the record, yet still modest by national standards. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest odometer tampering or prolonged standing. The sparse but consistent annual testing pattern, with entries in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026, provides a coherent chronological picture of gradual, low-intensity use. A buyer should still inspect the tyres carefully. The 2026 advisory for a cut in the nearside rear tyre, combined with the 2023 advisory for an offside front tyre worn to near the legal limit, points to uneven tyre wear that may reflect alignment issues or infrequent rotation. The offside rear brake disc flagged in October 2024 warrants a check for scoring or lipping, even though it did not reappear as a defect. Given the car's age and low mileage, suspension bushes and coil springs may have deteriorated from age rather than use, so a test drive over rough surfaces is advisable. The windscreen wiper fault from 2025 was minor, but confirming the wiper blade condition and washer jet function remains a sensible precaution.
