2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · SH67 OGF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 at 66,311 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improving trend compared to previous years, where several mechanical and consumable issues were identified. The transition from multiple advisories and defects to a clean sheet in the latest test suggests that the previous owner has addressed the outstanding faults flagged during the 2025 inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. Between August 2022 and August 2024, the Tucson covered 22,875 miles, showing steady usage. The more recent interval between August 2024 and August 2025 saw 15,257 miles driven. The period before the 2026 test covered an additional 9,556 miles, representing a stable usage profile that typically results in predictable wear on suspension components rather than accelerated strain. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The 2024 test flagged heat-damaged rear brakes, while the 2025 test noted pitted and scored rear brake discs. Although the vehicle passed in 2026, a physical check for caliper sticking or uneven pad wear is necessary to ensure consistent performance. Additionally, the recurring mention of perishing and worn edge tyres in both 2024 and 2025 warrants a close look at the current set of tyres to ensure they were not replaced with aged or poorly maintained rubber.
