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 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 47,693 miles. While mileage is consistent, the extensive history of advisories and failures suggests significant ongoing maintenance needs.

Mileage is consistent at approximately 9,700 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 2019 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories across 13 tests (Jan 2021, Jan 2023, Jan 2026).
  • Recurring steering rack gaiter advisories escalating to a major failure (Jan 2022, Jan 2026).
  • Recurring suspension coil spring advisories (Jan 2021, Jan 2026).
  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories (Jan 2023, Jan 2026).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-18, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,700 miles/year, no fraud detected.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
  • Extensive MOT history provides full transparency of vehicle's condition.
