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 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 17,200 miles. The 2015 failure for a front suspension ball joint dust cover, combined with a history of tyre issues, warrants careful inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,858 miles per year, with a notable drop from 8,838 miles/year (Jan 2019) to 2,913 miles/year (Jan 2023), indicating a change in usage or potential periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • 2015-01-29 FAILED: Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (4.1.D.1b) and suspension ball joint dust cover excessively damaged.
  • Jan 2019 ADVISORY: Offside Front Outer Brake pad(s) wearing thin inner pads can not be seen (1.1.13 (a) (ii)) — a recurring concern.
  • Jan 2020, Jan 2021, Jan 2022, Jan 2023, Jan 2024 ADVISORY: Tyres repeatedly noted as deteriorated, worn, or damaged across multiple tests.
  • Jan 2023 FAILED: Nearside Front Lower Suspension component ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii)).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-31, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent low mileage (4,858 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT tests (Jan 2026).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) demonstrates strong safety features.
