2001 Hyundai Amica 1.0L Petrol · Y463 FOB

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 24 March 2026 at 41,226 miles passing without recorded defects. The sequence of passes in 2024, 2025 and 2026, following a single failed test in March 2025 that listed no faults, indicates a stable maintenance pattern rather than a deteriorating one. Mileage averages roughly 1,650 miles per year over a 25‑year lifespan, which is markedly low. Between the 30 June 2022 test at 27,419 miles and the 5 January 2024 test at 38,799 miles the car accumulated about 11,380 miles in 18 months, a modest rise that aligns with occasional longer journeys. Subsequent intervals show increments of 1,119 miles (January 2024 to March 2025) and 1,306 miles (March 2025 to March 2026), confirming a consistent, low‑usage profile. A prospective buyer should focus on age‑related components that are not captured by MOT results. Inspect suspension bushings and coil springs for any cracking or excessive play, and verify that brake pads and discs show even wear without scoring. Examine tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as low mileage does not guarantee recent replacement. Check the chassis and under‑body for surface rust, especially around wheel arches and suspension mounting points, and assess the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks. Finally, confirm that all fluid seals and hoses are intact, as prolonged periods of inactivity can lead to drying or cracking that the MOT does not detect.
