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 79% pass rate and 16,270 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2025-09-12, the extremely low mileage for its age makes this vehicle highly suspicious.

The vehicle shows a total of 31,517 miles over 18 years, averaging only 1,886 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year and raises serious odometer integrity concerns.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 31,517 mi over 18 years (Jan 2008) — bottom 10% of similar HYUNDAIs of this age.
  • Mileage anomaly: 1,886 miles/year average is highly suspicious for an 18-year-old vehicle, suggesting potential odometer fraud.
  • No valid MOT on record for a 2008 vehicle registered in 2008-01, which should have had its first MOT by 2011-01.
  • The 2011-04

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a strong safety record for its model year.
  • No recurring major failures: While there are advisories, the same system has not failed repeatedly, suggesting isolated issues rather than systemic neglect.
  • Consistent retest passes: All 3 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same day, indicating responsible and prompt owner maintenance.
  • Long MOT validity: The MOT is valid until 2025-09-12, providing peace of mind for the immediate future.
