HYUNDAI TUCSON2017 · 1.7L Diesel

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded across its last four MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-10-29 assessment at 52,524 miles. All tests from 2022 to 2025 passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the lack of detailed repair records limits insight into deeper servicing practices. The mileage progression shows a steady increase, with 38,592 miles in 2022 rising to 52,524 by 2025—a 13,932-mile gain over three years. This aligns with the vehicle’s 9-year age, averaging 5,836 miles annually, which is below the typical usage for its age. Notable gaps between tests, such as the 14-month interval between 2023-09-28 (43,821 miles) and 2024-11-06 (48,646 miles), may reflect infrequent MOT renewals rather than inactivity. The low mileage reduces wear on consumables but could also imply prolonged periods of storage, warranting scrutiny of components prone to degradation. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these often degrade with age regardless of MOT results. Check for corrosion in underbody areas, particularly around the exhaust system, and verify brake disc thickness and caliper functionality, as these can deteriorate without triggering MOT failures. The vehicle’s low mileage may mask hidden issues from inactivity, so a pre-purchase inspection should focus on these elements to confirm continued roadworthiness.
