2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · RW07 CCW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, the most recent MOT on 13 June 2026 recorded 45 647 miles and passed with no defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving pattern; the October 2025 test flagged thin front and rear brake pads and tyre damage, yet the latest test is clean, indicating those issues have been addressed. Mileage progression indicates low overall usage for an eight‑year‑old car, averaging roughly 5 700 miles per year. However, the interval from October 2025 to June 2026 added about 8 120 miles in eight months, a higher rate than the annual average. Earlier gaps show more modest gains, suggesting periods of light use interspersed with heavier running. A buyer should inspect the brake system for residual pad wear, especially the rear pads noted as thin in 2025. Tyre condition demands close scrutiny; the rear tyre showed cracking and the front tyres were worn close to the legal limit at that test. Check for any corrosion on the rear tyre sidewall and uneven wear patterns, which could indicate suspension or alignment issues not captured in the MOT. Although the latest MOT is clean, the history points to consumable wear that should be renewed before further use. Verify that the brake discs are not warped and that the suspension bushes show no excessive wear. A thorough visual inspection of the exhaust and underbody for rust will also be prudent, given the vehicle’s age.
