2012 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · RE12 AEB

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of recent inspections. The most recent MOT on 3 April 2025 at 130,536 miles passed without any recorded defects or advisories. This follows a consistent trend of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 14 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,324 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between April 2024 and April 2025, where the odometer rose from 119,232 to 130,536 miles. This indicates the car has remained in active use rather than sitting idle, which generally helps prevent seals from perishing and braking components from seizing. The absence of advisories across multiple tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record shows two instances of immediate failure and pass on the same day in April 2023 and April 2024, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or very minor issues resolved instantly. There is no evidence of chronic problems with suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may overlook or that do not trigger a failure. Given the age and high mileage, check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis. Inspect the condition of the brake discs for lip wear and check the service history for timing belt or chain maintenance, as the MOT record does not provide data on internal engine health or fluid intervals.
