2012 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · YR62 XMJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean mechanical history. The most recent test on 1 October 2025 at 40,861 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just two days prior on 29 September 2025 at the same mileage. This isolated failure likely represents an administrative error or a minor component adjustment that was rectified immediately, as the subsequent pass shows no recurring mechanical or structural issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,919 miles per year. Between April 2022 at 30,217 miles and July 2024 at 34,957 miles, the car covered only 4,740 miles over two years. This low usage suggests the vehicle has been used primarily for short-distance trips or has remained stationary for extended periods. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can also increase the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluid breakdown due to lack of use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage storage rather than mechanical wear. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or perish rot, as these age regardless of the distance driven. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often leads to oxidation on the rotors. Given the clean MOT history, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but a visual check for deep-seated rust in the sills remains standard practice.
