2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · FG18 HYR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent test conducted on 1 September 2025 at 29,229 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a clean record across the last five recorded inspections. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been well-cared for and that the mechanical and safety components are operating within expected parameters without signs of immediate failure or progressive degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,654 miles per year. Between March 2022 and September 2025, the car covered 9,023 miles, indicating a pattern of light use. The interval between the 2024 test at 27,711 miles and the 2025 test shows consistent usage consistent with this low annual average. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, such infrequent driving patterns can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or brake surface corrosion due to lack of thermal cycling. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage issues. Check for flat spots on tyres or perished cracking in sidewalls from long stationary periods, and inspect the brake discs for pitting or rust. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these materials can age over time regardless of the distance driven. The absence of structural advisories to date suggests the chassis remains free from significant corrosion at this stage.
