2006 Hyundai Trajet 2.0L Diesel · GD06 EKT

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 13 October 2025 at 136,885 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner successfully addressed issues following a minor failure just six days prior to that test. While the history shows failures in both 2023 and 2025, the subsequent passes indicate that the owner takes action to rectify defects rather than allowing the vehicle to operate with known faults. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,844 miles per year over two decades. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered 1,385 miles, while the subsequent year saw 1,566 miles recorded up to the 2025 test. This low annual usage suggests light use, which typically reduces mechanical wear on drivetrain components and suspension, but can increase the risk of rubber-based components degrading or brake components seizing due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody, as a twenty-year-old Trajet is susceptible to significant corrosion. Given the low mileage, pay close attention to binding brake calipers and perished brake lines, which often occur on vehicles that are not frequently driven. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or sagging, as age of the vehicle often leads to material fatigue regardless of the relatively low total mileage recorded on the odometer.
