2016 Hyundai Tucson 2.0L Diesel · FP16 YMT

The Hyundai Tucson presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 7 April 2025 at 74,865 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior examinations show the same clean outcome, with passes logged on 28 March 2024 at 70,136 miles and 13 April 2022 at 51,175 miles. The vehicle has not accumulated any advisories or mechanical faults across the available history, indicating consistent upkeep by previous keepers. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2016 plate, averaging roughly 7,486 miles per year against the 74,865 miles recorded. The gap between the April 2022 test at 51,175 miles and the April 2024 test at 70,136 miles shows about 19,000 miles covered across two years, then only 4,729 miles in the following year to April 2025. Such a drop suggests lighter recent use, though the record itself is sparse with just five entries and no flagged wear on consumables or structure. A failed test on 11 April 2023 at 66,744 miles appears anomalous, as the same date and mileage also show a pass with no defects recorded. This duplicate entry implies an administrative retest rather than a genuine mechanical fault, and no suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion were cited at any stage. Buyers should still verify the bodywork and underbody for structural integrity given the car's ten years, as MOT cleanliness does not rule out hidden rust. In person, check the tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions for consumable condition despite the absence of advisories. The binding calipers and steering joints should be physically inspected for onset of wear from standing periods. The clean record points to a well-kept example, but a pre-purchase inspection remains sensible on a vehicle of this age.
