MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Hyundai Matrix (EU53 AUY) between January 2007 and February 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 9 failures.
