2007 Hyundai Coupe 2.0L Petrol · CE57 RVF

The vehicle presents a questionable roadworthiness profile, with a history showing a pattern of reactive maintenance rather than preventative care. While the most recent test in February 2022 at 104,150 miles passed, it revealed a minor exhaust leak and worn discs on both axles. Given that over four years have passed since this record, the vehicle is significantly overdue for an MOT, and the current mechanical state is unverified. The historical trend is erratic, marked by multiple failures indicating that critical safety issues are only addressed after they fail a legal inspection. At 104,150 miles, the car has low mileage for its nineteen years, averaging roughly 5,500 miles per year. However, the usage pattern is highly inconsistent. There was a notable gap of no records between 2019 and 2022, followed by a period where the car covered nearly 30,000 miles in just a few years. Such low-mileage, intermittent use often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seizing of braking hardware, which aligns with the recurring mechanical faults noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, which has been a persistent point of failure. The record shows a history of leaking hydraulic pipes, inoperative parking brakes, and seriously weakened discs dating back to 2018. The suspension also requires close scrutiny, specifically the track rod ends and anti-roll bar drop links, which have previously shown excessive play or snapped components. The recurring mention of exhaust leaks and a failed lambda sensor reading in 2018 suggests the exhaust system and emissions components may suffer from corrosion or internal failure.
