2021 Hyundai Tucson Ultimate T-GDI 1.6L Petrol · CF21 UFM

The 2021 Hyundai Tucson Ultimate T-GDI presents a strong and stable maintenance trend, with its most recent MOT on 18 August 2025 at 28,781 miles recording zero defects. A clean pass on 19 August 2024 at 20,527 miles reinforces this picture. No recurring faults, no advisories, and no failures appear across the two recorded tests, indicating consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle. Between the August 2024 test and the August 2025 test, the odometer advanced by just 8,254 miles over twelve months. Across its full life, the recorded 28,781 miles equate to roughly 5,756 miles per year, well below the UK average. Such light usage typically reduces wear on consumables and drivetrain components, though prolonged periods of short journeys or standing can introduce its own risks, particularly with diesel particulate filter regeneration or battery health, though this T-GDI petrol unit avoids the DPF concern. With no flagged defects in the MOT record, there are no recurring faults to guide a buyer toward specific structural or mechanical red flags. A buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas the MOT may not fully expose. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers for any deterioration that can occur even on low-mileage vehicles left standing. Inspect the brake discs, pads, and calipers for surface corrosion or binding, particularly if the car has seen short trips. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion, verify tyre age and sidewall condition even if tread depth remains legal, and confirm the structural integrity of the underbody for any signs of corrosion or impact damage. A test drive at varied speeds will reveal any subtle drivetrain vibrations or steering tracking issues not captured in static testing.
