About the 2010 Perodua Myvi

The 2010 Perodua Myvi is a city car. Our records list this model year as electric, but most of the model's other years are petrol or diesel, so the fuel type and running costs here may be wrong. 657 MOT tests were recorded on this model in 2024, making it a less common model in the UK market. Among all models from 2010, the average MOT pass rate is 75%, and this model beats that benchmark.

With an average of 66,949 miles recorded at its 2024 MOT tests, Perodua Myvi owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver.

What does it cost to own a 2010 Perodua Myvi?

Total estimated annual running cost is £980 (£82/month), broken down as £555 electricity, £20 road tax, £55 MOT, and £350 predicted repairs. Repair costs are moderate, reflecting the 81% pass rate. Keeping on top of servicing will help avoid surprises.

Perodua Myvi Reliability Trend

Newer Perodua Myvis pass their MOT more often than older ones, by 7 percentage points on average, which is mostly down to age and wear.

Buying a Used 2010 Perodua Myvi

At 16 years old, the Perodua Myvi is firmly in budget territory. Purchase prices are low, but check for rust, worn suspension bushes, and electrical gremlins. A full service history is especially valuable at this age. If you're flexible on year, the 2011 model has the highest pass rate at 82%.

Common Issues to Watch For

These are typical issues for cars of this age, fuel type and engine size, not faults recorded on this model's MOT tests. Use them as a checklist when you view one.

Rust and Corrosion

Watch out

At 10+ years, check wheel arches, sills, subframe, and brake lines for rust. Structural corrosion is an MOT failure. Prevention is far cheaper than repair.

Suspension Bushings

Watch out

Rubber suspension bushes harden and crack with age, causing knocking noises and vague handling. A full refresh costs £300-£800 depending on the car.

Service History

Low risk

Always request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
