Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2009 model year cars.
- Premature clutch wearModerate
Small clutches and heavy town use mean many i10s need a clutch earlier than buyers expect, especially ex-driving-school or multi-owner cars.
- Rear brake binding and handbrake-cable seizureModerate
Rear drums or calipers can stick if the car is used mostly for short trips, causing drag, hot wheels and MOT brake-imbalance failures.
