MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Hyundai Matrix (BX54 VGF) between April 2008 and December 2024.

The record contains 17 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 10 December 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (21 issues), Tyres (20 issues), Suspension (19 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (12 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 80 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural stren”; “Offside Front Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Central Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”.
