2016 Hyundai Tucson SE NAV B-Drive 2WD Crdi 1.7L Diesel · AM52 MCM

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson presents a clean and stable maintenance trend through its most recent MOT on 28 October 2025 at 80,414 miles, where the tester recorded zero defects. This outcome, combined with four consecutive passes spanning from April 2022 through late 2025, indicates consistent mechanical upkeep with no recurring faults, advisories, or structural corrosion flagged across the entire documented history. The vehicle has remained roadworthy without intervention on every recorded test, suggesting attentive ownership and no emerging mechanical deterioration. The mileage accumulation is remarkably linear and typical for a ten-year-old vehicle. From 53,360 miles in October 2020 to 80,414 miles in October 2025, the car covered roughly 27,054 miles over five years, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year during that window. Earlier years show similar consistency, with the odometer climbing from 62,164 miles in April 2022 to 68,801 miles by June 2023, a gain of 6,637 miles in fourteen months. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the record, and the current annualised figure of around 8,000 miles aligns with typical UK driving patterns. Despite the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on components that do not always present as defects until they reach a critical threshold. The 2.0-litre CRDI diesel engine and its associated DPF system deserve particular attention; short-trip urban use at this mileage can lead to DPF clogging that may not trigger an MOT failure until emissions exceed the sharpest test limits. Inspect the front and rear suspension bushes, drop links, and coil springs for play or cracking, as these components commonly wear between 70,000 and 90,000 miles on vehicles used on uneven surfaces. Check the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or lipping, and verify that the rear calipers are not binding, a known issue on this generation Tucson. Examine the subframes, sills, and inner wheel arches for surface corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has spent time in coastal or road-salt-heavy regions. Tyre condition and age should also be verified, as perished sidewalls on a car that may have stood for extended periods can present a risk even with adequate tread depth.
