2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.7L Diesel · FL17 HDV

The Hyundai Tucson presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 91,864 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from March 2023 to March 2025 also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the five-year record, indicating consistent upkeep rather than deferred repairs. Mileage has accumulated in a steady, age-appropriate pattern. The car covered 57,148 miles by 9 March 2023, rose to 70,735 miles by 8 March 2024, then 81,259 miles by 12 March 2025, and 91,864 miles by 24 March 2026. That equates to roughly 10,200 miles per year against a nine-year lifespan, confirming light-to-moderate use with no sudden accumulation spikes or dormant periods. The DVSA data is sparse on fault detail, with only a single failed entry on 8 March 2024 at 70,735 miles showing no recorded defects before an immediate clean pass the same day, suggesting an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical defect. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the clean sheet. The absence of advisories does not preclude worn suspension bushes, corroding subframes, or fatigued coil springs that testers may overlook on a briefly examined car. Given the 2017 build and 91,864 miles, brake disc wear, exhaust integrity, and underbody structural corrosion warrant hands-on checks. Verify the 8 March 2024 failure rationale with DVSA, as a no-defect fail is atypical and may reflect a documentation error. Otherwise, the record implies a previous owner who maintained test compliance without neglect, leaving the Tucson in sound mechanical standing for its age and mileage.
