2009 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · LD59 ULW

This 2009 Hyundai i10 presents a stable and generally improving maintenance trend, culminating in a fully clean pass at 71,609 miles on 18 August 2025. The most recent test recorded zero defects, indicating that all previously flagged issues were rectified. A minor washer fluid deficiency was identified on the same day as the pass, but this is a trivial consumable top-up rather than a mechanical concern. The trajectory from 2024's multiple advisories to a spotless 2025 result suggests attentive ownership in the past two years. The vehicle has covered approximately 6,784 miles between August 2024 and August 2025, a notable uptick from the 7,333 miles recorded across the prior twelve-month period. Annual mileage sits at roughly 4,212 miles per year over its seventeen-year life, which is low for its age. The MOT record shows consistent August testing with no gaps, giving confidence that the mileage progression is genuine and not artificially suppressed. No rapid accumulation or suspicious leaps appear in the data. The 2024 failure flagged an offside front tyre below the 1.6mm legal limit, a misaimed nearside headlamp, and a smeared windscreen caused by worn wiper blades. All three are routine consumable items, and the subsequent clean pass confirms they were replaced or adjusted. No recurring mechanical faults, suspension defects, brake issues, or structural corrosion have surfaced across the recorded tests. The absence of repeat failures on tyres or lighting suggests the owner addressed these promptly rather than deferring repairs. A buyer should still inspect the front tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, given the vehicle's age, and verify that the headlamp aim remains correct after any suspension work. Check the exhaust for corrosion and listen for any exhaust gas leaks at the manifold, as short-trip use on a low-mileage city car can accelerate moisture-related rust. The MOT record offers no evidence of structural or mechanical neglect, but a physical underbody inspection remains prudent for a seventeen-year-old vehicle.
