2019 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · LX69 UNP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. While it passed its latest test in September 2025 at 44,394 miles, this followed a significant failure involving multiple critical safety items including brakes and tyres. The trend shows that the owner only addresses defects once they reach the MOT failure threshold, as evidenced by the transition from failure to pass between tests. At seven years old with 44,394 recorded miles, the Tucson averages approximately 6,342 miles per year. This figure is consistent with low-mileage usage, which generally preserves the drivetrain and interior. However, the gap between September 2023 at 27,662 miles and September 2024 at 35,373 miles shows the vehicle covered 7,711 miles in a year, showing consistent usage. The low annual mileage has not prevented rubber degradation, evidenced by the recurring perishing and cracking of tyres noted in the records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system. The September 2025 failure flagged thin front brake pads at under 1.5mm and worn rear pads, alongside worn front discs. Since these were rectified to secure the pass, the buyer should verify that high-quality components were used and that the calipers are not binding. The recurring mention of uneven wear on the front tyres in 2025 suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require professional checking. The tyre condition remains a point of concern due to the history of cracking and perishing. Observations across 2023, 2024, and 2025 suggest the vehicle may sit for long periods, causing the rubber to age independently of mileage. Check the manufacture dates on all four tyres to ensure they are not perished despite having sufficient tread depth. There are no structural or corrosion issues noted in the records, focusing the risk entirely on consumable wear and age-related components.
