2011 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · SL11 UOF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 66,059 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure just one mile prior due to critical tyre defects. The history indicates that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when forced by an MOT failure, which suggests that underlying issues like brake corrosion and tyre wear may be neglected between inspections. At approximately 15 years old with 66,059 miles, this Hyundai i10 has covered a low average of roughly 4,400 miles annually. This low usage typically suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and gearbox, but it often leads to age-related degradation of rubber-based components. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows an interval of only 2,224 miles, confirming the car likely sits for long periods or performs very short trips, which explains the perishing and cracking noted in the tyres despite potentially low tread depth. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and rubber components. The September 2024 failure highlighted excessive corrosion on the nearside rear and offside front inner brake pipes, alongside a lagging rear service brake. You should verify that these pipes have been replaced or properly treated and are currently free of further structural decay. Furthermore, the recurring mentions of perishing and damaged tyres across 2024 and 2025 indicate that the rubber is reaching the end of its structural life due to age rather than mileage. Check the sidewalls for deep cracking and ensure the suspension bushes are not perished from long periods of stationary..
