HYUNDAI COUPE2005 · 2.0L PETROL

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2025 at 96,093 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previously identified issues have been addressed. While the car suffered a failure in 2024, the subsequent pass without any advisory notices in the latest test suggests that the current owner is reactive to safety-critical MOT-related requirements. The mileage profile reflects a low-use pattern, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year over its 21-year life. Between August 2022 and July 2025, the vehicle covered 8,058 miles, showing consistent but minimal annual usage of roughly 2,700 miles per annum. This low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber parts, seals, and brake components which can dry out or perish during periods of standing or limited travel. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension geometry, as the 2024 failure highlighted a damaged track rod end ball dust cover and a structural tyre failure. Although these were rectified, the presence of a torn tyre structure suggests potential impact damage or neglect of basic wheel maintenance previously. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection is required to check for corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points, as low-mileage older cars often suffer from environmental rust rather than mechanical wear. Verify the absence of seized brake calipers or perished rubber hoses to ensure the system's operational performance is maintained despite the low mileage.
