AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Hyundai has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 22,098 miles. The presence of a DANGEROUS tyre defect in 2019, escalating to a major failure in 2024, indicates a pattern of critical neglect.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,394 miles per year, averaging 22,098 miles over 17 years, which is highly unusual and raises significant questions about its true usage and maintenance.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded on 2019-04-01, escalating to major failure in 2024-04-01.
  • Recurring brake system failures and advisories across multiple tests (2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2024).
  • Persistent coil spring wear noted in 20+ advisories since 2014-05-13.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (4,394 mi/yr) for a 17-year-old vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-04-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recorded odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases, albeit very low, show no suspicious drops or spikes.
