AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Hyundai has 17 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 16,854 miles. However, a significant pattern of recurring suspension advisories and a major failure in 2023 warrants careful inspection.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,610 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
Things to check
- Major failure for offside front suspension arm ball joint on 2023-03-27.
- Recurring suspension advisories across multiple tests (e.g., coil spring, anti-roll bar link).
- Corrosion advisories on both front and rear subframes noted in 2025-03-26.
- Low annual mileage (4,610 mi/yr) suggests limited use, which can lead to component wear.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,610 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-30, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
