2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · CP68 AVV

This 2018 Hyundai Tucson has a very recent MOT, passing just days ago on 22 May 2026 with 66,461 miles. The mileage is roughly in line with its age, averaging about 8,300 miles per year, which is typical and doesn't strongly suggest either very hard use or long periods standing. The main pattern in its MOT history is recurring advisories for tyres worn close to the legal limit or worn unevenly on their edges. This was noted on the offside rear tyre last month, on both front tyres a year prior, but not recorded in the two tests before that. This indicates a developing issue over the last two to three years, likely related to wheel alignment, suspension geometry, or incorrect tyre pressures causing uneven wear. The pattern is persistent but not dramatically worsening, as the most recent test only flagged one tyre compared to two the previous year. Otherwise, the history is clean with no other recorded defects or failures, which is a good sign for the core mechanical components checked during the MOT. Given this history, your most important hands-on checks should be focused on the tyres and suspension. Inspect the tread depth and wear pattern on all four tyres carefully; any uneven wear, especially on the inner or outer shoulders, would confirm an alignment or suspension issue. You should also check the suspension components for any play or worn bushings, as this could be a root cause of the tyre wear.
