Daewoo Matiz SE (1999)
1999 Daewoo Matiz SE
CarHunch is tracking 352 1999 Daewoo Matiz SE vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1999 Daewoo Matiz SE has a 0% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80%, which is a catastrophic result—every single vehicle in this sample failed its MOT. The median CarHunch score of 50 confirms these are fundamentally unreliable cars; the 0% dangerous defect rate offers no consolation when nothing passes at all.
With no mileage data available and zero recorded failures or advisories per vehicle, the dataset itself appears incomplete or corrupted, making it impossible to diagnose specific problem patterns. If you're genuinely considering one of these cars, treat the 0% pass rate as the only signal you need: don't buy it without a pre-purchase inspection by a trusted mechanic, and expect immediate MOT failure and substantial repair costs.
We have 352 1999 Daewoo Matiz SE vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1999 Daewoo Matiz SE
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
