This 2012 Hyundai has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 24,136 miles. The mileage is extremely low for its age, and a significant mileage decrease in 2023 raises serious questions about its true condition.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (4,848 miles/yr) with a critical 40-mile decrease in December 2023, indicating potential odometer fraud or a significant data anomaly.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (Feb 2026) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring Suspension Arm failures: Offside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (Feb 2026) — repeated wear.
- Recurring Brake Hose failures: Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (Feb 2026) — repeated corrosion.
- Mileage anomaly: 40-mile decrease on 2023-12-20 (61,773 mi to 61,733 mi) — potential odometer fraud.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-24 — no immediate retest required.
- No recent MOT failures — last failure was in Feb 2026, indicating some recent repairs.
- Euro NCAP safety rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a safe vehicle from a crashworthiness perspective.
- Low mileage for age: 4,848 miles/yr over 14 years — suggests minimal wear and tear on engine.
