1998 HYUNDAI COUPE1.6L PETROL

The most recent MOT for the 1998 Hyundai Coupe was conducted on 2011-04-04, when the vehicle had 88,865 miles. It passed with one minor note: the nearside seat belt anchorage showed corrosion in a prescribed area, though it was not deemed excessive. No other defects were recorded. This suggests the vehicle met basic safety standards at that time, but the lack of MOT data for over a decade raises concerns about its current condition. Recurring issues in earlier MOTs (2010-04-16 and 2010-04-19) included tire degradation, brake imbalance, and headlamp alignment problems. Heavy perishing and cracking in front and rear tires were noted, along with low tire pressure and a weak offside front brake. These issues point to potential neglect or exposure to harsh conditions, though some were addressed by 2011. The 2008 and 2007 MOTs, however, showed no defects, indicating a period of stable performance. The trend appears mixed. While the vehicle passed in 2011, the absence of MOT records since then means there is no evidence of ongoing maintenance or deterioration.
