AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Hyundai has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 47,719 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's history of neglect in critical safety systems demands thorough investigation.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,968 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 37-mile discrepancy on 2025-12-05 suggests a retest or data anomaly.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2025): Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-12-05, indicating severe neglect of critical safety components.
- Recurring suspension advisories (9 items) and anti-roll bar link failures (3 items) across multiple tests.
- Persistent tyre wear advisories (4 items) and deteriorated registration plates (2 items) from 2017-12-07.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-01-06, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory, averaging 11,968 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
