2018 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · WD67 HHK

A pattern of increasing advisory items has emerged in the most recent testing cycles, despite the vehicle passing its latest inspection on 19 January 2026 with no defects recorded. While the earlier years of the MOT history from 2021 through 2023 showed no recorded issues, the 2024 and 2025 tests introduced concerns regarding tyre wear and seat belt integrity. This shift suggests that while the vehicle remains roadworthy, the frequency of minor non-mechanical and consumable-related advisories is trending upwards. The vehicle has covered 61,940 miles over its eight-year lifespan, representing an average annual accumulation of approximately 7,742 miles. This mileage profile is consistent with typical UK usage for a small city car of this age. Mechanically, this level of use suggests that components such as suspension bushes, brake pads, and exhaust systems should be within their expected wear cycles, rather than being subjected to the accelerated degradation seen in high-mileage vehicles or the potential stagnation issues associated with very low-mileage usage. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the tyre and seating advisories noted in the 2024 and 2025 records. The 2024 advisory regarding front tyre edge wear, combined with the 2025 advisory concerning a tyre fitted incorrectly with the inside facing out, warrants a physical inspection of the current tread patterns and alignment. During a test drive, check for any steering pull to one side or vibrations through the steering wheel at motorway speeds, which could indicate underlying suspension geometry issues or incorrect wheel alignment. The 2025 advisories regarding frayed webbing on both the nearside front and nearside rear seat belts require immediate verification. While these are recorded as advisories, damaged webbing can compromise occupant safety in the event of an impact. Ensure that the seat belt mechanisms retract smoothly and that the webbing is free from any further splitting or structural weakness. Given the absence of any recorded structural corrosion or fluid leaks in the MOT history, the primary focus for an inspection should remain on these specific consumable and safety-related items.
