How ULEZ rules apply to the i10
Cars that miss the standard pay £12.50 for each day they're driven in the zone. Petrol and petrol-hybrid cars need Euro 4 (most from 2006).
- Petrol (100% of i10s tested): every year in our data is likely to comply.

Buying a used Hyundai i10 for London: what the MOT data shows
The Hyundai i10s in this data were first registered between 2008 and 2021. 2017 was the most common year, with 23,800 tests (10% of the total), and half were registered in 2014 or later.
Almost every i10 in the data is from a year likely to comply, so age and condition matter more than ULEZ when choosing one. The newest (2021) passed first time 90% of the time at 14,782 miles on average, and the oldest (2008) passed 57% at 69,885 miles.
Whichever year you choose, check the i10's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were lights and electrics: "not working" (6.3% of tests); visibility: "does not clear the windscreen effectively" (3.5%); tyres: "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm" (1.9%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 13.7% of tests.
Overall, 74% of i10s passed first time, slightly above the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 44,289 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
