This 2010 Hyundai has 15 MOT tests on record with a 87% pass rate and 2,076 miles. The car's extremely low annual mileage (3,445 miles/yr) for its age is a major red flag for potential long-term neglect.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,445 miles per year since registration in 2010, which is a major concern for a 16-year-old car.
Things to check
- Extremely low annual mileage (3,445 mi/yr) for a 16-year-old vehicle is a major red flag.
- No service history recorded for a 2010 car is a significant reliability concern.

Working in its favour
