2012 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · RE12 AEA

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 78,744 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a series of passes dating back to 2023, indicating that the car is currently maintained to a standard that avoids immediate mechanical or safety failures during the annual testing process. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per annum. The data shows consistent, light-duty usage, with only 3,821 miles covered between January 2025 and January 2026. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests suggest the vehicle may sit for extended periods. The single failure in December 2022 at 65,170 miles was immediately followed by a pass, suggesting a minor issue that was rectified rectified rather than a chronic mechanical failure. Despite the clean-sheet records, a buyer should inspect for signs of age common to low-mileage vehicles, such as the degradation of rubber components. The tester has not flagged any issues, but a physical check of the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls is necessary as these crack over time regardless of distance driven. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can lead to build-up rust and seized calipers. The structural integrity of the chassis and underbody remains a priority to ensure that the low mileage has not masked hidden corrosion in the sills or wheel arches.
