2017 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · SB17 ODA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test on 21 May 2026 at 75,608 miles passed, it revealed a recurring defect regarding the offside front seat belt webbing. This specific issue was noted in the May 2025 test, suggesting that the previous owner has neglected to address a safety-critical interior component despite it appearing across multiple inspection cycles. The mileage pattern remains remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per annum. Between the May 2023 test at 47,334 miles and the June 2024 test at 59,442 miles, the car covered over 12,000 miles, followed by a steadier of roughly 6,500 miles between May 2025 and May 2026. This steady usage suggests regular short trips rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for maintaining rubber seals and mechanical components. A buyer must pay close attention to the braking system, following the failure on 22 May 2025 at 69,134 miles where the tester found both rear brake discs corroded and pitted. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent test, the presence of corrosion on low-mileage cars often indicates long standing periods or use in damp environments. The offside front seat belt also requires immediate physical inspection and replacement, as fraying can lead to structural failure of the webbing during an impact. Additionally, the wiper blades should be checked for wear, as the previous failure in 2025 indicates these consumables are only replaced once they failed a test.
