2016 Hyundai Tucson 2.0L Diesel · BV66 CVB

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 29 September 2025 at 67,023 miles with zero defects recorded. That result marks a clear resolution of the only defect in the entire history. A failed test on 7 September 2023 at 59,279 miles flagged a Nearside Rear Outer Brake pad worn below 1.5 mm, yet the retest on the same day at the same mileage passed, confirming the pads were replaced immediately. No further advisories or failures have appeared since, indicating the owner addressed the issue promptly and has maintained the vehicle to a consistent standard through three consecutive clean passes. The mileage accumulation is steady and unremarkable for a vehicle of this age. Annual increments sit between roughly 4,400 and 4,700 miles, with the 2024 to 2025 interval adding 3,381 miles, suggesting slightly lighter recent use. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the record. The MOT schedule itself is regular, with tests clustered around early to late September each year, implying a single annual test cycle rather than repeated re-tests or long periods off the road. From a mechanical standpoint, the history is sparse, which is broadly positive. The single brake pad wear item is a consumable defect, not a systemic fault. No suspension, steering, structural corrosion, or exhaust emissions defects have ever been flagged across five tests spanning nearly four years. That said, a buyer should still inspect the rear braking circuit in person, checking caliper slide pins for free movement and the disc faces for uneven wear or lipping, given the one-off pad wear event. The underbody and suspension mounting points deserve a close visual check for corrosion or bush deterioration, as these are common on Tucson models of this generation and the MOT record offers no evidence either way. Tyre condition and tread depth across all four corners should also be verified, as uneven wear patterns can hint at alignment or suspension geometry issues not captured by a standard MOT.
