2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · FP68 FXF

The vehicle currently maintains a good roadworthy status, having achieved a clean MOT pass on 13 July 2026 at 52,048 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving following a period of tyre-related issues. While previous tests showed signs of wear and neglect, the most recent inspection indicates that the current owner is proactively addressing necessary maintenance items before they result in failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between 18,714 miles in October 2021 and 52,048 miles in July 2026, the car covered 33,334 miles over five years. There is a notable drop in usage between October 2022 and July 2023, where only 4,543 miles were recorded between tests. This low annual mileage suggests the car was used for short trips or spent long periods standing stationary, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components rather than mechanical wear. A buyer should inspect the braking system, as the July 2025 test at 44,360 miles flagged thin brake pads on both front and rear axles. While the vehicle passed the subsequent 2026 test, the remaining life on these consumable components is likely nearing their replacement interval. The history also highlights recurring tyre cracking and damage between 2022 and 2023, indicating the rubber may be drying out due to age and low use. Checking the sidewalls for further per or cracking is essential to ensure the tyres are not structurally compromised despite having sufficient tread depth.
