2012 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · YR12 XTA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test on May 8, 2026, 115,288 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner responded immediately to a failure identified just one day prior. While the car failed due to a non-functional lamp and an excessively worn offside front suspension arm ball joint, the subsequent pass indicates these specific mechanical faults were addressed and rectified rather than being allowed to persist or worsen. The recorded mileage of 115,288 miles over 14 years represents an average usage of approximately 8,235 miles per annum. This aligns with typical UK driving patterns for a small city car. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with roughly 3,900 miles covered between the April 2024 and April 2025 tests, and another 3,800 miles leading into the most recent failure and pass cycle. This regular use generally prevents the issues associated with standing that lead to seal failures and component degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension assembly, as the failure of the ball joint in May 2026 suggests other rubber components may be reaching the end of their functional life. Given the age and mileage, check for play in the steering arms and the condition of the shock absorbers. The 2024 failure regarding exhaust lambda readings indicates a past engine management issue or partial catalytic converter inefficiency; while the car passed the following test, monitoring for increased fuel consumption or smoke is advisable to ensure the emissions system remains within operational parameters.
