2022 Hyundai I10 Premium MPI 1.2L Petrol · GL22 LWN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 2025-06-10 at 10,404 miles, though the record reveals a concerning pattern of repeated failures and persistent issues. The most recent test passed, but only after a prior failure on the same day for identical faults—windscreen wiper inefficiency on both sides and a nearside front tyre showing signs of perishing. This indicates that the underlying problems were not resolved in time to pass the initial assessment, suggesting either inadequate repair work or ongoing mechanical degradation. The recurrence of the same tyre issue within a single test date implies that the fault was not addressed properly, raising questions about the vehicle’s overall maintenance discipline. The recorded mileage of 10,404 miles over four years equates to an average of just 2,601 miles annually, which is exceptionally low for a 2022 model. This suggests the vehicle has seen minimal use, possibly stored for extended periods between short drives. However, the fact that a tyre shows visible perishing damage at such low mileage is unusual and points to potential storage-related deterioration—rubber degrades over time regardless of usage. There are no other MOT records available before this date, so there is no historical trend to assess beyond this single test cycle. The absence of earlier data limits insight into long-term wear patterns, but the current state reflects a vehicle that may have been underused rather than well-maintained. A buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the windscreen wipers, focusing on their mounting mechanisms, linkage arms, and blade condition, as both failed to clear the glass effectively during the test. The nearside front tyre must be examined closely for cracks, dry rot, or structural compromise, as its condition poses a safety risk if not replaced. Additionally, the brake system should be checked for binding calipers or uneven wear, especially given the proximity of the tyre issue to the braking components. Suspension bushes, steering linkages, and any signs of corrosion in the chassis or wheel arches should also be verified, as these can be overlooked in low-mileage vehicles left idle. The lack of prior MOT history means the full service record remains unknown, so confirming documented servicing and component replacements is essential.
