2004 Hyundai Coupe 1.6L Petrol · HV54 AHC

The 2004 Hyundai Coupe presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 15 November 2023 at 107,311 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Prior to that, the May 2022 and March 2021 tests each passed after an initial failure two days earlier at near-identical mileages, showing the vehicle cleared rectification promptly. The absence of any advisories across these entries suggests no outstanding wear items were flagged by testers. Recorded mileage sits at 107,311 against a 22-year lifespan, equating to roughly 4,878 miles per year. The car covered only 4,771 miles between the March 2021 test at 98,845 and the November 2023 pass, confirming light annual use. A two-day failure-to-pass gap in both 2021 and 2022 at 98,841/98,845 and 102,536/102,540 miles points to administrative or minor pre-test faults rather than accumulated neglect, though the DVSA entries list no defect detail to confirm this. Given the clean record with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the vehicle's age. Low mileage and possible long standing periods raise the risk of perished rubber components and seized calipers not captured in a pass result. Verify the actual cause of the two historical two-day failures through the test station's failure notice, as the supplied record shows none recorded.
