2021 Hyundai Tucson SE Connect T-GDI 1.6L Petrol · NV21 EVM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in proactive care. While it passed its most recent test on 8 June 2026 at 50,058 miles, it failed just one day prior due to multiple minor 의견s. The presence of an insecure battery, damaged underttrays, and a cut on the offside rear tyre indicates that the owner is only addressing faults when forced by the MOT tester, rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The car covered 12,470 miles between June 2024 and June 2025, and another 13,320 miles in the following year. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use, which explains the wear observed on the tyres during the June 2025 test where both front tyres were found near the legal limit and worn on the edges, potentially indicating a need for alignment checks or pressure monitoring between annual inspections. A buyer must physically inspect the front and nearside undertrays to ensure the damage is not merely cosmetic and has not impacted underlying mounting points or exhaust components. The battery securing bracket requires immediate attention to prevent vibration-related damage to the terminals or internal cells. Given the previous failure for a missing wheel wheel fixing in 2024 and the recent uneven wear on the tyres, a thorough check of the wheel bolts and suspension geometry is essential to ensure no deeper mechanical issues are developing.
