2016 Hyundai Tucson 1.7L Diesel · DC60 CHR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 23 July 2026 at 97,876 miles. This pass followed a failure just six days prior due to the nearside rear door failing to open from the outside. Despite this recent mechanical defect, the overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle maintained a clean record for three years preceding the incident. The immediate resolution of the door mechanism failure suggests the owner is reactive to MOT requirements once they are identified by the tester. The mileage profile is consistent with a typical used-car pattern, averaging approximately 9,788 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation from 23,384 miles in October 2019 to the current 97,876 miles. There are no significant gaps in usage or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest long periods of neglect. The interval between the 2025 and 2026 tests shows 13,580 miles driven annually, which aligns well with standard operational expectations for a family SUV of this age. A buyer should specifically inspect the nearside rear door mechanism to ensure the fault was fully rectified and is not indicative of deeper structural issues or hinge misalignment. The history shows a recurring issue with tyre maintenance, with failures or advisories noted in 2022 and 2023. These faults often point to poor alignment or a failure to monitor wear. Given that front brake pads were flagged as thin in 2021, a physical check of the current brake pad thickness and disc condition is necessary to ensure they have been replaced recently during the 63,000 miles driven since that warning.
