2001 Hyundai Coupe 2.0L Petrol · FL51 JGV

The Hyundai Coupe presents a currently roadworthy status following a passed MOT on 7 March 2025 at 58,825 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the recent test cycle. The vehicle cleared its final assessment without advisories after an anomalous same-day failure on 7 March 2025 that listed no defects, mirroring an earlier same-day fail on 9 March 2024 at 52,224 miles before a pass on 15 March 2024 at 52,261 miles. Recorded mileage sits at 58,825 against a 25-year-old chassis, equating to roughly 2,353 miles per year. The car accumulated only 3,702 miles between the March 2023 test at 49,123 miles and the March 2025 test at 58,825 miles. Low annual use of this nature often signals extended standing periods. Sparse MOT data shows no advisories across any pass, and the two failures carry zero recorded defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and likely dormancy of the vehicle. Long stationary intervals accelerate corrosion on structural members and brake calipers even when the MOT log stays clean. The absence of flagged wear items does not override the risk profile of a quarter-century-old low-use coupe. Verify the V5C and confirm whether the 2024 and 2025 same-day fail-then-pass pairs reflect genuine re-tests or data anomalies. Inspect underneath for structural rust and check tyre sidewall cracking from age rather than mileage.
