2018 Hyundai Tucson S Blue Drive 2WD Crdi 1.7L Diesel · SH67 OGX

The 2018 Hyundai Tucson presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 7 July 2025 at 95,146 miles passing with zero defects recorded. That is a strong result, particularly for a diesel vehicle approaching nine years of age. The absence of any advisories or failures across the three available tests indicates consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural deterioration. The mileage accumulation is broadly typical for the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 11,893 miles per year. Between the June 2022 test at 53,190 miles and the July 2023 test at 68,121 miles, the car covered approximately 14,931 miles in just over twelve months, which sits slightly above the annual average. The subsequent two-year interval to July 2025 added a further 27,025 miles, a higher-than-average rate that suggests sustained regular use rather than long periods of standing. No gaps or anomalies appear in the record that would raise concern about mileage tampering or extended disuse. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. The 2.0-litre diesel engine and associated exhaust after-treatment system, including the diesel particulate filter, deserve close scrutiny given the mileage and typical urban or mixed-use driving patterns. Suspension components such as front lower arm bushes, rear trailing arm bushes, and shock absorbers should be checked for wear, as these commonly degrade on heavier SUVs beyond 80,000 miles. Brake discs, pads, and calipers merit inspection for uneven wear or binding, particularly on a vehicle that may have seen frequent stop-start use. The underbody and wheel arches should be examined for corrosion, especially around suspension mounting points and sills, as these structural areas can deteriorate invisibly beneath surface grime. Tyre condition and alignment should also be verified, as uneven wear patterns can indicate neglected tracking or suspension issues not yet severe enough to trigger a test failure.
