AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Hyundai has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 32,106 miles. While mileage is low for its age, the consistent advisories for wear items suggest significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage, averaging only 5,746 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage between 2013 and 2022, and a recent spike in 2023.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Apr 2019, Apr 2020, Apr 2021, Apr 2022, Apr 2023, Feb 2026) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake system advisories across 4 tests (Apr 2020, Apr 2021, Apr 2022, Apr 2023) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Recurring suspension arm advisories across 3 tests (Apr 2020, Apr 2021, Apr 2023) point to a history of wear.
- A 2024 MOT gap suggests the vehicle may have been off-road or not used, requiring a full inspection.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
- Valid MOT until February 2027, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,746 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
