2017 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · GU17 UDJ

The most recent MOT on 2026-02-16 recorded a single defect: the offside front tyre was worn close to the legal limit, specifically on the inner edge (5.2.3 (e)). This mirrors identical issues noted in the 2024-01-30 and 2022-02-01 MOTs, indicating a recurring tyre wear pattern. No other defects were recorded in this or prior tests, and the vehicle has consistently passed inspections. The tyre wear trend suggests a persistent issue, likely linked to suspension, alignment, or uneven load distribution. The inner-edge wear on the same tyre over multiple years implies a mechanical root cause rather than random damage. While the defect was not classified as a safety risk in the latest test, repeated occurrences may signal underlying problems that could worsen without intervention. Mileage of 67,617 miles for a 9-year-old vehicle aligns with average annual usage (approx. 7,513 miles/year). This suggests typical wear for the age, with no clear evidence of excessive hard use or prolonged inactivity. However, the absence of high-mileage warnings does not rule out localized component stress, particularly given the recurring tyre issue.
