2020 Hyundai Tucson SE NV48V Mhev CRDI2WDSA 1.6L Electric diesel · FN70 LMF

The Hyundai Tucson presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 August 2025 at 37,204 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2023 to 2024 also passed clean. The only blemish is a failed test on 25 August 2023 at 29,751 miles that the DVSA logged with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage averages around 6,200 miles, which is typical for a six-year-old vehicle of this type. The records show steady, low accumulation: 29,751 miles in August 2023, 33,241 in August 2024, and 37,204 in August 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the sequence, and the clean pass sheets across all dated tests suggest the previous keeper kept the car lightly used and serviced to a standard that avoided advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the braking system, coil springs, and underbody for structural rust, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not confirm component life remaining beyond the test threshold. The 2023 same-day fail with no defects logged warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason code, though the immediate pass implies no outstanding work. Given the low yearly use, suspect dried seals, flat-spotted tyres from standing, and mild surface corrosion on exhaust or subframes that a winter lay-up can provoke. No recurring mechanical faults or consumable neglect appear in the history, so the Tucson shows no worsening pattern. The clean run from 2024 to 2025 at rising but modest mileages points to a cared-for example, yet a pre-purchase check of suspension joints and brake disc condition remains sound practice before funds transfer.
