2021 Hyundai Tucson Premium T-GDI HEV Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric · PL21 ACF

The vehicle presents a current roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 30 March 2026 at 87,357 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend following a singular failure in April 2025. The clean sheet from the latest inspection suggests that any issues previously identified by the tester have been rectified and that the vehicle currently meets all minimum safety and emissions standards. The mileage profile reveals high intensive use for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,500 miles per annum. There is a significant usage spike between the June 2024 test at 21,876 miles and the April 2025 test at 45,228 miles, representing over 23,000 miles covered in just ten months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent motorway driving or heavy commercial application, which typically accelerates the wear of mechanical components compared to lower-mileage city cars. Given the high annual mileage, a buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the suspension geometry and braking system. Check for premature wear on coil springs, shock absorbers, and bushings, as these components often reach the end of their service life near the 90,000-mile mark. Additionally, examine the brake discs and pads for thinning or uneven glazing, as the high mileage puts significant thermal stress on the hybrid braking system. While the MOT record is currently clean, the sheer volume of use necessitates a thorough check of the drivetrain and tyre condition to ensure no deferred maintenance issues are developing.
