2009 Hyundai I10 1.1L Petrol · KR09 XNU

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthiness rating of 100, indicating it is fully roadworthy, but this status is contingent upon addressing recurring mechanical issues. The most recent test on 2026-06-18 at 73,675 miles was passed, yet the history reveals a complex maintenance trend that suggests the vehicle may require immediate intervention. The MOT record shows two distinct failures in the September 2023 test at 52,000 miles, specifically the front headlamp lens defect and the corroded rear coil spring, which were both resolved in the 2023-08-09 test. This indicates that while the car passed the initial inspection, the underlying structural and consumable wear has not been corrected, leading to a potential risk of failure in the future. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 4,334 miles per year, which is consistent with a low-mileage vehicle for its age. However, the data suggests a gap of roughly 1,500 miles between the September 2023 test and the most recent test on June 2026. This significant gap implies that no major repairs were performed or that the vehicle was driven with minimal maintenance, which could accelerate wear on critical components such as the suspension bushings, brake discs, and exhaust emissions. The absence of a clear record of major maintenance between these two dates suggests that the vehicle may not be in optimal condition for its age or usage pattern. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to evaluate the severity of the recurring faults and determine if the structural risks are acceptable. The most significant concern is the corrosion on the rear coil spring and the door/wing damage, which could indicate a lack of proper suspension or braking maintenance. Furthermore, the binding service brake binding noted in the 2022-07-28 test suggests the brakes may be approaching their limit, especially given the lack of excessive wear. The presence of a failing repeater lens and missing white light also warrants inspection to rule out hidden mechanical faults. If the buyer proceeds with a purchase, they must verify that the suspension and braking systems have been serviced or that the vehicle has been driven with sufficient maintenance to prevent the recurrence of these issues.
