2021 Hyundai Tucson Premium T-GDI HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · OY71 JYP

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with three consecutive MOT tests completed without a single failure or advisory, including the latest pass on 7 May 2026. This lack of recorded defects across multiple years indicates a stable mechanical state regarding the components examined during the DVSA inspection process. The recorded mileage of 19,751 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 3,950 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests significantly reduced wear on primary drivetrain components, suspension bushes, and brake discs compared to a high-mileage equivalent. However, low annual accumulation can sometimes lead to different wear characteristics, such as the potential for binding calipers or perished rubber seals due to inactivity, though none of these have been flagged in the official records to date. Because no specific defects have been flagged in the MOT history, the test drive should be used to verify that the vehicle's operational feel matches its clean record. Focus on the seamlessness of the hybrid powertrain, listening for any abnormal noise or vibration during the switch between electric and petrol modes. Ensure the steering is precise and centered without any pull, confirming the integrity of the steering rack and alignment. Check for any pedal judder or uneven braking force, which would indicate the onset of binding calipers or warped discs, despite the lack of recorded brake defects. Confirm that the automatic gearbox operates smoothly through all ratios without hesitation. A final check of the tyre treads for uneven wear patterns will help confirm that the suspension geometry remains correct, supporting the clean outcomes of the previous three tests.
