2014 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · RJ64 PLV

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of neglected basic consumable upkeep. The most recent test in November 2025 at 66,948 miles identified three out of four tyres worn to the legal limit alongside a damaged nearside headlamp. This continues a pattern seen in 2024 and 2023, where the front tyres were repeatedly flagged for reaching or nearing the legal tread depth, specifically showing uneven edge wear. At 66,948 miles, this 12-year-old Hyundai has covered a low annual distance, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. This low usage suggests short trips or periods of inactivity, which explains the presence of perishing and cracking noted in the December 2021 test at 20,051 miles. While the low mileage reduces mechanical strain on the drivetrain, the intervals between tests show the car has sat long enough for rubber components to suffer from the age-related degradation common in low-mileage, older-generation vehicles. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry, as the recurring edge wear on the tyres across multiple years indicates potential misalignment or worn suspension bushes. The brake history also shows pitted and scored rear discs in both 2021 and 2022, which is typical for vehicles that are driven infrequently and allow surface corrosion to set in. Given the age of the car, check for structural corrosion on the underbody and ensure the current tyres have been recently replaced following the previous failures.
