2017 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · VO67 FSV

The Hyundai i10 has maintained a consistent MOT history with no defects recorded across five consecutive tests, all passing without fail. The most recent inspection on 15 August 2025—just under a year ago—confirmed the vehicle’s compliance with current roadworthiness standards. This suggests a stable maintenance record, though the absence of advisories or minor faults means no recurring issues have been formally documented. The vehicle’s compliance with emissions and structural integrity has been verified annually, but the lack of any warnings implies either diligent upkeep or that minor wear has not yet reached MOT thresholds. The recorded mileage of 21,665 miles over nine years—approximately 2,407 miles annually—indicates unusually light usage for a vehicle of this age. The incremental jumps between tests (e.g., 12,659 miles in September 2021 to 15,020 miles in August 2022, a span of 1,361 miles) and the absence of large mileage gaps suggest the car has been stored or driven sparingly rather than neglected. While this reduces wear on high-mileage components like brakes and suspension, it may also mean some fluids or consumables have not been refreshed as frequently as recommended, particularly if the vehicle was stationary for extended periods. Given the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should prioritise an inspection of suspension components—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—due to the low mileage, which can sometimes lead to premature degradation from lack of movement. The brakes, while not flagged in tests, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been stored with the brakes applied. Tyre condition should be checked for uneven tread wear, which could indicate alignment issues or prolonged static loading. Finally, a thorough examination of the underbody for corrosion—particularly around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system—is essential, as standing vehicles are more susceptible to rust development. The absence of advisories does not preclude these areas from requiring attention.
