2006 Hyundai Matrix 1.6L Petrol · KM56 DVP

The vehicle maintains a valid roadworthiness status following its most recent test on February 5, 2026. While the record shows an initial failure on that same date, the immediate pass with no recorded defects indicates the specific issue was rectified quickly. The maintenance trend appears stable over the last three years, as the vehicle has passed three consecutive annual tests without any recorded failures or advisories, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components met minimum standards during those specific inspections. At a recorded mileage of 66,655 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 3,333 miles per year over its twenty-year life. This low mileage profile suggests infrequent use or long periods of standing, which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components despite low mechanical wear on moving. The intervals between tests are consistent, occurring annually from 2023 through 2025, with a slight shift in the month for the latest test in early 2026. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of components prone to age-related failure in low-mileage vehicles. This includes checking suspension bushes and control arm bushings for cracking or perishing, as well as inspecting brake discs for corrosion or pitting resulting from inactivity. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the chassis for structural integrity and surface corrosion is necessary to ensure that hidden rust has not developed between the clean points of the MOT tests. Buying score: 68 Risk level: Low.
