2004 Hyundai Accent 1.6L Petrol · CX04 GGA

The Hyundai Accent presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 18 July 2024 at 77,650 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes from July 2021 through July 2024. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally low use for a 22-year-old vehicle. Between 19 July 2021 at 76,613 miles and 18 July 2024 at 77,650 miles the car covered just 1,037 miles, averaging under 350 miles per year. The 2022, 2023 and 2024 tests each posted passes at 77,224, 77,544 and 77,650 miles respectively, confirming a sparse but consistent annual testing pattern with no gaps or sudden accumulation. Such low throughput suggests long stationary periods rather than active wear cycling. A clean advisory sheet across all four tests means the tester flagged no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions or structural integrity concerns. The absence of recurring faults denies us any trend to judge as worsening or resolving. Given the low mileage and standing time implied by the record, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural rust, perishing rubber components such as brake hoses and suspension mounts, and fluid degradation in brakes and coolant. Flat-spotted tyres from prolonged storage remain a plausible consumable risk the MOT did not capture.
