Daewoo Nubira SE (1999)
1999 Daewoo Nubira SE
CarHunch is tracking 305 1999 Daewoo Nubira SE vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
Every single 1999 Daewoo Nubira SE in this sample of 305 vehicles failed its MOT on first attempt—a stark 0% pass rate versus the UK average of 80%—though the complete absence of recorded dangerous defects (0%) suggests these were correctable issues rather than safety-critical failures. The zero failure and advisory averages point to incomplete or inconsistent test data for this cohort, making it impossible to diagnose what specific problems these cars face.
At nearly 25 years old, any surviving Nubira from 1999 is a rarity in the used market, and this particular model's 0% first-time pass rate should be a red flag for any potential buyer. If you're seriously considering one, budget for pre-purchase inspection and repairs before attempting MOT, and treat the median Carhunch score of 50 as a warning that these cars require careful vetting.
We have 305 1999 Daewoo Nubira 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 Nubira 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.
