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 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 14,128 miles. While it has a long MOT, the consistent wear on critical components suggests potential future costs.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before April 2018 (87 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in annual usage, averaging only 4,649 miles per year since registration.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension advisories across 4 tests (May 2021, May 2022, May 2023, May 2024) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring brake advisories across 3 tests (May 2021, May 2022, May 2023) suggest a need for continuous maintenance.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 2 tests (May 2021, May 2023) point to a history of worn tyres.
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage before April 2018 (87 mi/yr equivalent).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until June 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded in the latest tests.
  • Consistent annual mileage since 2018, despite low overall usage, suggests regular use.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
