Our Verdict
This 2006 Hyundai Getz presents a relatively straightforward proposition with three consecutive clean passes on its recent test history. While it has covered above-average mileage for its model type, the clean test outcomes in 2023, 2024, and 2025 make it a sensible budget-friendly option.
When viewing this 2006 Getz, pay close attention to the documentation supporting its 99,131 miles, particularly looking for service stamps that verify how the engine and manual gearbox have been treated. Note that the 2024 and 2025 tests both recorded initial same-day failures followed by passes, so check the test logs or any accompanying paperwork to see what necessitated the re-tests. Inspect the black paintwork for age-related car park dings and ensure all electrics inside the cabin function correctly before agreeing to a price.
The 1,086.0cc petrol engine sits in a modest insurance group, making it an affordable choice for younger or budget-conscious motorists. Fuel economy for this generation is generally respectable around town, keeping day-to-day motoring accessible. Road tax sits in a predictable band for a 2006 petrol hatchback, and routine maintenance parts are widely available and inexpensive.
Given the model's aggregate failure data, thoroughly inspect the headlamps for cloudiness or alignment issues, check the condition and tread depth of all tyres, and listen for any knocking from the drive shaft joints during a test drive. Examine the suspension components and brakes for wear commensurate with its mileage. Additionally, verify the outcome details of the initial test failures from July 2024 and July 2025 to understand what caused those same-day failures.
First registered in September 2006 and finished in black, this 1.1-litre petrol Hyundai Getz has recorded 99,131 miles by its July 2025 test. Its recent MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing cleanly, though each pass was preceded by an initial failure on the exact same day in both 2024 and 2025. It compares favourably against the national model average pass rate of 70.2%, though its mileage is significantly higher than the typical Getz annual average of 4,802 miles.
The Hyundai Getz demonstrates a moderate reliability record with an aggregate MOT pass rate of 70.2%, with headlamps, tyres, and drive shaft joints acting as the most frequent failure items.

AI Analysis
Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: HYUNDAI GETZ
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Clutch release-bearing and cable wear(Moderate)
Urban Getz models often need a clutch earlier than expected, with noisy release bearings and heavy or inconsistent pedal action as the usual warning signs.
- Brake-pipe and subframe corrosion(Serious)
The shells hold up fairly well, but UK road salt attacks exposed brake pipes, subframe edges and mounting points. Neglected cars can move from advisories to MOT failures quickly.
