2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · OW18 GOC

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean record across the last five annual MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 24 June 2025 at 11,323 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable and well-maintained condition. This consistency suggests that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable parameters without triggering any failures during the DVSA testing process. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,415 miles per year. Between June 2021 and June 2022, the car covered only 1,096 miles, suggesting very infrequent use. There was a slight increase in usage between the 2023 and 2025 tests, where the vehicle clocked 4,295 miles, yet the figures remain well below the national average. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between journeys can sometimes lead to issues with components sitting stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage storage. Check the tyres for flat spotting or cracking on the sidewalls, as rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or seized pistons, which often occur when a vehicle is not driven frequently to clear rust. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and rubber seals for signs of cracking, as these materials can become brittle over an eight-year period even with minimal mechanical stress.
