2009 Hyundai I10 1.2L Petrol · YS09 LBJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test in July 2025 at 76,187 miles passed with an advisory for an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit with inner edge wear. This follows a trend seen in previous years where defects were only addressed after a failure. While the vehicle has maintained its MOT status, the recurring nature of consumable failures suggests a lack of routine inspections between tests. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 76,187 miles represents a low average of approximately 4,500 miles per year. This low usage suggests the car has been used for short trips or sat periodically. Between July 2023 and July 2025, the car covered 11,176 miles, which is consistent with this annual profile. However, low mileage on older vehicles often masks the degradation of rubber-based components such as suspension bushes and brake seals, which age over time regardless of distance driven. A buyer should specifically inspect the front geometry and suspension components given the repeated reports of inner edge wear on multiple tyres across 2023, 2024, and 2025. This persistent issue likely indicates incorrect alignment or worn ball joints and tie rods that require professional attention. The vehicle should also be checked for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust system, as low-mileage cars of this era frequently suffer from rust if stored in damp environments. The history of failed bulbs is minor, but a thorough check of the electrical wiring and bulb sockets is advisable to ensure no further intermittent failures.
