Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent pass record over the last three years. Following a single failure in November 2022, the car has cleared three consecutive MOT tests without a single defect or advisory noted. The most recent test conducted in June 2025 at 134,284 miles confirms that the vehicle currently meets all safety and emissions standards, suggesting that the mechanical condition is being maintained effectively. At a recorded mileage of 134,284 miles over 17 years, the car averages approximately 7,900 miles per annum. This aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows a steady usage pattern, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between November 2023 and July 2024, followed by another 8,200 miles between July 2024 and June 2025. This regular operation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps keep seals lubricated and prevents flat-spotting. While the clean history is encouraging, a buyer must account for the age-related degradation inherent in a 2009 Hyundai. The lack of advisories in recent years indicates that the tester did not find immediate issues with the suspension bushes or thinning brake components. However, a physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity, specifically checking the sills and wheel arches for corrosion which is common on this era. Given the mileage, a thorough check of the rubber bushings and the condition of the shock absorbers is necessary to ensure no hidden wear is nearing failure.
