2008 Hyundai I10 1.1L Petrol · SM08 ACY

The 2008 Hyundai i10 demonstrates a roadworthy status supported by the latest DVSA test on 10 June 2024 at 20,511 miles, which returned a pass with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the five available annual examinations remains stable. The test on 23 June 2023 at 19,951 miles shows a failure with no defects listed, followed six days later on 29 June 2023 by a pass at identical mileage with no defects. This pattern indicates a procedural anomaly rather than an unresolved mechanical fault. No advisories or recurring defects appear in the chronology. The vehicle is eighteen years old with a recorded 20,511 miles, averaging roughly 1,140 miles per year. Mileage advanced modestly from 18,717 miles in June 2021 to 19,372 in June 2022, then 19,951 in June 2023 and 20,511 in June 2024. Such low annual accumulation implies light use and probable long stationary periods. The sparse but clean record gives little sign of skipped consumable replacement, though absence of advisories does not confirm component health. A buyer should commission an in-person inspection focusing on age-related degradation rather than mileage wear. Structural integrity demands checks for corrosion on sills, floor pan and subframes given outdoor exposure over eighteen years. Suspension bushes and coil springs may have hardened or cracked through time, while brake calipers could bind and discs show rust pitting after prolonged standing. Tyres might exhibit sidewall perishing despite legal tread. Previous owners clearly favoured minimal running, so these dormant-condition faults warrant scrutiny before purchase.
