2017 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · WP67 BNF

The 2017 Hyundai I10 presents a stable, if lightly tested, maintenance profile. The most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-10-21 at 58,002 miles, passed with only a minor advisory regarding the internal headlight adjuster being altered for the retest. This indicates a vehicle that has remained fundamentally roadworthy, with no recurring serious mechanical failures. The trend is broadly stable, though the record reveals a pattern of consumable wear and minor brake issues that a diligent owner would have addressed promptly. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a city car of this age. Between the 2021 test at 38,640 miles and the 2025 test at 58,002 miles, the vehicle covered approximately 19,362 miles over four years, averaging just under 4,840 miles annually. This suggests lighter use in recent years, potentially reflecting a change in keeper or usage pattern. The record shows no alarming gaps in testing, with annual MOTs maintained consistently from 2021 onwards. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear braking system, which has historically drawn the most attention. In October 2023 at 47,249 miles, the tester flagged thin offside rear brake pads, a worn and overheated disc, and a binding service brake. While the subsequent tests show no recurrence, this cluster of faults suggests the offside rear caliper may have been sticking. A thorough road test should check for uneven braking pull, and the caliper slide pins and pistons must be inspected for free movement. The offside rear disc and pad condition should be measured against wear limits. Beyond the brakes, the record highlights two tyre-related advisories: a nail in the nearside rear tyre in 2022 and an inner edge wear pattern on the offside front tyre in 2024. Inner edge wear typically points to worn suspension bushes or incorrect tracking, so the front suspension arms, ball joints, and anti-roll bar links should be checked for play. Given the vehicle's age and typical urban use, a close visual check for corrosion on the subframe, sills, and brake lines is prudent, even though no structural advisories have been recorded.
