2015 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · RF15 ACJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive brake component replacement. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 71,941 miles passed, the tester flagged front brake pads worn to 2mm and worn front discs. This follows a period of two clean MOT records in 2024 and 2025, indicating that the braking system is now entering a cycle of wear. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use city car, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between March 2022 and March 2023, where the car covered only 4,970 miles, followed by a significant jump of nearly 8,000 miles between 2023 and 2024. This suggests the vehicle may have sat for extended periods, which can lead to dry rot in rubber components or surface corrosion on metal surfaces despite low total mileage. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking system during a physical viewing. The history shows pitted rear brake discs in 2023 and thin-out front components in 2026, suggesting the owner replaces parts only when they reach inspection limits rather than proactively. Check for caliper binding or uneven pad wear which could explain the accelerated front wear. Given the age of the vehicle and the mileage, also inspect the suspension bushes and exhaust system for structural corrosion, as these areas often degrade on low-mileage cars that spend time in damp environments.
