2014 Hyundai I10 S 1.0L Petrol · NS04 BEN

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-28 at 87,170 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, a prior failure on 2026-03-22 at 87,049 miles—just six days earlier—without any recorded defects raises questions about the testing process or potential oversights. The absence of issues in earlier tests from 2023 to 2025 suggests consistent compliance, but the unexplained failure warrants further scrutiny to confirm whether it was a procedural error or an overlooked fault. Mileage progression shows a steady annual average of 7,264 miles, aligning with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle. The tests from 2023 to 2026 cover a consistent 10,000–12,000-mile range per year, with no significant gaps or abrupt spikes. This pattern implies regular use rather than prolonged inactivity, reducing risks of component degradation from standing. The lack of recurring defects in prior tests supports the conclusion that the vehicle has been maintained to meet legal standards, though the recent failure remains an anomaly. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, for wear given the age and mileage. The exhaust system and brake discs should also be checked for corrosion or thinning, as these are common issues in older vehicles. While no structural rust or critical faults are documented, the unexplained MOT failure suggests a need for a thorough mechanical examination to identify any hidden issues not flagged during testing. The absence of advisories on tyres or wiper blades indicates basic upkeep, but further checks on fluid levels and electrical systems are advisable.
