This 2012 Hyundai has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 22,239 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated advisories on critical safety components warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,518 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine light usage.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures (Sep 2023, Jul 2024, Jul 2025) and suspension advisories (Jul 2024, Jul 2025) suggest ongoing wear.
- Multiple recurring advisories for lights, tyres, and suspension components across 13 MOT tests.
- The 2012 Hyundai is a 23 in the insurance group, making it expensive to insure.
- The vehicle is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge of £12.50 in London.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until April 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,518 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
