2016 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · PY65 HXT

The vehicle holds a valid MOT as of 29 January 2026, having passed after remedial work was carried out on the same day at 17 410 miles. The earlier failure on that date flagged seriously weakened nearside and off‑side rear brake discs, thin front brake linings and ineffective front wipers; the subsequent pass indicates those defects were addressed. The trend therefore shows an improvement following corrective action, though the recent focus on brake disc integrity suggests a lingering area of concern. Mileage has risen from 6 673 miles in January 2019 to 17 410 miles in January 2026, averaging roughly 1 700 miles per year. The incremental increases of 2‑3 k miles each year point to very low utilisation for a ten‑year‑old model, with no evidence of sudden mileage spikes or unexplained gaps. Such modest use typically limits wear on major components, yet the brake‑related advisories indicate that even low‑mileage vehicles can develop localized fatigue when operating conditions are not regularly monitored. A prospective buyer should concentrate on the braking system. Inspect the rear brake discs for thickness and any signs of cracking or heat‑induced warping, confirming that the previously weakened discs have been replaced or resurfaced to acceptable standards. Examine the front brake linings for uniform wear and verify that the brake hoses, previously noted with slight ferrule corrosion in 2024, show no current leakage or deterioration. Test the nearside and off‑side front wipers for full sweep and clear‑away performance, as the original failure highlighted ineffective clearing. While the MOT record shows no suspension or structural alerts, a visual check for rust on suspension bushes and chassis joints remains prudent, especially given the vehicle’s age.
