2016 Hyundai Tucson 2.0L Diesel · FD16 MKJ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably consistent maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 21 June 2025 at 104,207 miles returned no defects or advisories, mirroring the results of four consecutive clean passes. This stability suggests that the previous owners maintained a proactive approach to repairs, ensuring that mechanical and safety components remained within the required DVSA tolerances. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally linear for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per annum. Between the April 2021 test at 51,736 miles and the June 2024 test at 98,274 miles, the car covered roughly 46,500 miles, indicating steady annual use rather than long periods of stagnation or neglect. The interval between tests remains consistent, with the vehicle being tested annually on or near its anniversary-month date, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and seals often associated with intermittent use. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults in structural integrity or braking systems, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items associated with a vehicle reaching the six-figure mile mark. The buyer should verify the condition of the suspension arm bushes and shock absorbers, as these often show signs of fatigue at this mileage despite a clean MOT. Given the lack of advisories regarding brake calipers or exhaust corrosion, the vehicle appears well-cared for, but checking for minor fluid leaks and the state of the drivetrain remains necessary to ensure the mechanical history reflects the actual condition of the engine and gearbox.
