This 2009 Hyundai has 16 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 12,173 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 2017 Euro NCAP rating, raises significant reliability and safety concerns.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,278 miles per year, with a suspiciously low 1,694-mile increase between May 2019 and June 2020.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-08-15 (Offside Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded).
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-08-15 (Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded).
- Recurring suspension advisories (Jun 2023, Jun 2023, Jun 2022, Jun 2020) indicate systemic neglect.
- Brake hose corrosion escalated from advisory (Jun 2020) to DANGEROUS failure (Aug 2025).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-18, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars is a positive for safety features.
