2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · HT18 GKZ

The 2018 Hyundai Tucson demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent 2025-07-11 MOT at 85,087 miles recording a pass and no defects. The prior 2024-07-17 test at 69,679 miles also passed, though a failed test on 2024-07-16 at 69,619 miles—despite no recorded defects—suggests potential inconsistency in testing. No recurring mechanical issues are evident in the history, and the vehicle’s maintenance pattern shows no signs of deterioration. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage, accumulating approximately 10,636 miles annually. The 2023-06-09 test at 54,466 miles and 2022-07-08 test at 43,318 miles confirm steady, predictable wear. The 15,250-mile jump between 2023 and 2024 tests is within normal parameters, with no evidence of abrupt or excessive mileage spikes. The MOT record is otherwise clean, with no advisories or repeated failures indicating neglect. A buyer should inspect suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. The failed 2024 test, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of brake systems and exhaust emissions. Corrosion risks, especially in high-mileage vehicles, should be checked on underbody panels and structural joints. No significant structural faults are documented, but physical inspection remains critical to confirm the absence of hidden damage or unresolved issues from the 2024 failure.
