AI verdict AVOID 40/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Hyundai has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 24,850 miles. Despite a recent clean MOT, the pattern of neglect in critical safety components makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage averaging 5,455 miles/year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year, but this is not a concern.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Rear brakes imbalanced across axle (Aug 2024) — a critical safety failure.
- DANGEROUS defect: Parking brake efficiency less than 50% (Aug 2022) — another safety-critical failure.
- Recurring brake system failures: Multiple advisories and failures across 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 MOTs.
- Low annual mileage: 5,455 miles/year is significantly below average, raising questions about vehicle use.
Working in its favour
- Recent clean MOT: Passed on 2025-08-25 with no current advisories or failures.
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-29: Offers immediate peace of mind for road legality.
- No mileage anomalies: Consistent, low annual mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No recent major failures: The most recent MOT (Aug 2025) passed without any failures or dangerous defects.
