2013 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · MT13 RNF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. The most recent test in June 2025 at 87,984 miles resulted in a failure due to a non-functional central rear seat belt, a worn offside front tyre, and a damaged windscreen. While the car passed immediately after these repairs, the recurring nature of failures suggests that the owner only addresses issues when prompted by the MOT tester rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern remains consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year over its thirteen-year life. The record shows steady progression from 78,292 miles in June 2023 to 82,670 miles in June 2024, reaching 87,984 miles the following year. This low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, which has shown a history of concern. The tester flagged a corroded offside front suspension arm in 2024 and an excessively worn nearside front ball joint in 2023. These findings indicate a need to check for further structural corrosion or play in the steering-related components. The recurring inner-edge wear on the offside front tyre noted in 2025 also suggests an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature tyre failure.
