2015 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · VA15 CNF

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with an improving maintenance trend regarding MOT compliance. The most recent test on 2 September 2025 at 31,530 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating that the owner addressed previous issues. While the history shows instances of failure in 2023 and 2024, the subsequent clean passes suggest the mechanical and structural components are currently meeting the required legal standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,866 miles per year. Between September 2023 and September 2024, the car covered only 1,812 miles, and it added another 2,664 miles in the year leading to that test. This low usage suggests light mechanical exposure, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine. However, such low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and corrosion on brake surfaces if the vehicle is not driven regularly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific causes of the failures in September 2023 and September 2024, as the provided data does not detail the exact mechanical faults. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to check for brake corrosion or seized calipers which often occur when cars sit stationary for long periods. Additionally inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as age-related material fatigue happens regardless of the low distance driven. Checking the chassis for structural rust is also necessary to ensure the low mileage has not masked underlying environmental issues over the last decade.
