2013 Hyundai Genesis 2.0L Petrol · AG62 LBK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach rather than preventative care. The most recent MOT test on 15 December 2022 at 84,995 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure on the same day. While the owner addressed the lighting issues and a minor suspension defect to secure the certificate, the presence of multiple failures in a single session suggests that basic equipment was only attended to when strictly necessary to pass the legal test requirement. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old luxury saloon, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. There is a significant three-year gap between the December 2019 test at 70,604 miles and the December 2022 test, during which the vehicle covered roughly 14,400 miles. This lower-than-average usage suggests the car may have experienced periods of inactivity, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluid quality despite the low overall mechanical wear. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension geometry during a physical inspection. The failure of the offside front outer track rod end in 2022 indicates early-stage wear in the steering linkage, and one should check for play in remaining ball joints and control arms to ensure the issue was isolated. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion and brake line condition is essential, as these areas are prone to age-related decay regardless of the distance driven.
