2018 Hyundai I10 1.0L Petrol · YL67 XDF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a successful retest in October 2025. While the most recent test at 42,581 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, the immediate failure on that same date indicates that essential maintenance was required to meet legal standards. The previous failures suggest a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep, particularly regarding consumables. The recorded mileage of 42,581 miles over an eight-year period averages approximately 5,323 miles per year. This represents low annual usage, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the MOT history shows that even with this low usage, the vehicle has required attention for wear-related items. The gap between the November 2024 test at 40,375 miles and the October 2025 test at 42,581 miles shows consistent, albeit light, annual operation. A prospective buyer should focus heavily on the braking system during a physical inspection. The October 2025 failure specifically flagged worn, pitted, or scored rear brake discs alongside thin front and rear brake pads. Although these were rectified for the pass, the condition of the discs suggests the vehicle may have sat for periods, allowing surface corrosion to develop. It is necessary to verify that the replacement components were of sufficient quality and that the calipers are not sticking. The history also highlights intermittent issues with minor consumables. The November 2024 failure for an offside front DRL and insufficient washer fluid, combined with the October 2023 advisories for perishing rear tyres and a worn front tyre, suggests the owner occasionally overlooked basic maintenance. An inspection should confirm that all tyres currently possess adequate tread depth and show no signs of sidewall cracking, and that all exterior lighting and washer systems function correctly.
