Our Verdict
This is a highly attractive option for c
The most immediate thing to check is the condition of all four tyres. The 2025 and 2026 MOT records both noted cracking or perishing on the rear tyres, suggesting the rubber may be ageing regardless of the tread depth. Ensure the seller has replaced these or is willing to negotiate the price to cover new rubber.
Beyond the tyres, check the windscreen washer system and headlamps, as these are common failure points for the i10 model according to aggregate data. Given the very low mileage, also inspect the battery and various rubber seals, as vehicles that sit idle for long periods can suffer from perished components or flat batteries.
As a 1.2L petrol model, this i10 is positioned in a relatively low insurance group and tax band, making it economical for new drivers. Fuel economy should be decent for urban commuting, though actual figures will depend on driving style.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically low, though you should budget for routine items like tyres and brake pads. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, is approximately £900-£1,100.
Focus your inspection on the rear tyres; the MOT history specifically flagged cracking and perishing on both the nearside and offside rear tyres in 2025, with the nearside continuing into 2026. This indicates age-related degradation that needs addressing.
Additionally, test the windscreen washer fluid spray and check the clarity of the headlamps. While this specific vehicle has not failed on these items, they are the most frequent MOT failure reasons for the Hyundai i10 across the wider dataset.
This 2012 red Hyundai i10 has covered just 19,543 miles in 14 years, which is significantly lower than the model average of 4,737 miles per year. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes with no major failures recorded, though recent tests have highlighted tyre degradation. It represents a low-mileage example of a popular city car.
The Hyundai i10 shows a solid aggregate MOT pass rate of 80.7% across a large sample of vehicles.
