2021 Hyundai Tucson SE NAV48V Mhev Crdi 2WD 1.6L Electric diesel · BT21 VTF

The vehicle currently fails roadworthiness due to a critical MOT record dated 2026-06-12 which indicates the test was passed at 73,972 miles, but the most recent entry shows the registration lamp inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources, suggesting the vehicle may have been driven with insufficient lighting or the lamp source is missing. This failure is not an isolated anomaly but rather a recurring pattern that indicates the vehicle has been maintained with a high frequency of checks, as the MOT has been passed consistently for the past two years without any recorded defects. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a 2021 Hyundai Tucson SE, reflecting a rapid accumulation of approximately 14,794 miles annually. This pace suggests the owner has maintained the car with minimal effort, relying on a high mileage figure to justify the vehicle's age rather than acknowledging the wear on consumables, suspension, brakes, or drivetrain components. The gap between the 2026-06-12 test and the 2025-03-11 test represents a significant period where the vehicle was not serviced, leading to the current failure to meet the 73,972-mile limit. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical risks, specifically focusing on suspension bushes and coil springs, as the history indicates a lack of regular maintenance. The vehicle may have developed structural issues such as rust or binding calipers due to the high mileage and lack of upkeep, which could compromise the roadworthiness of the chassis. Given the frequent MOT failures and the age of the vehicle, the owner must be prepared for potential costly repairs if these structural risks are not addressed before the next MOT test.
