2021 Hyundai Tucson SE Connect T-GDI 1.6L Petrol · SD71 XAV

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record as of the most recent test on 25 March 2026 at 14,369 miles. This latest inspection showed no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition. While the vehicle failed its MOT on 28 October 2024 at 8,414 miles, it passed the subsequent retest on 6 November 2024, suggesting that any identified faults were rectified promptly. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,874 miles per year. The data shows a significant period of low usage between April 2025 and March 2026, where the vehicle covered only 5,503 miles. This pattern suggests the car has seen light, occasional use rather than heavy commuting. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to issues with battery health or fluid degradation if the vehicle has sat idle for extended periods. Because the MOT history is largely devoid of advisories regarding consumables, there are no immediate red flags regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs. However, the single failure in late 2024 warrants a physical inspection of the specific component that caused the initial failure to ensure the repair was comprehensive. Given the low annual mileage, a buyer should specifically check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and ensure that all rubber seals and wiper blades remain supple, as these components often degrade faster when a vehicle is driven infrequently.
