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 7,300 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage for its age, combined with recurring issues and a recent failure, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,106 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 2,689 miles between Dec 2021 and Dec 2022).

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect recorded on 2025-12-19 for Offside Front Brake hose leaking.
  • Brake system failures recurring across 3 tests (Dec 2024, Dec 2025), indicating structural neglect.
  • Tyre condition advisories and failures (Dec 2018, Dec 2019, Dec 2020, Dec 2025), suggesting chronic under-maintenance.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (4,106 mi/yr) for a 2012 vehicle, raising concerns about long-term reliability.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-19, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
