2019 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · SO52 ADE

The 2026‑02‑27 MOT at 64,917 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend after earlier brake wear was addressed. The 2025‑03‑12 test showed front brake discs worn but not seriously weakened, while the 2024‑02‑28 entry listed thin front pads and pitted discs, and the 2023‑02‑27 failure highlighted inadequate rear parking brake effort. Mileage has risen from 45,067 miles in early 2023 to 64,917 miles by February 2026, a gain of roughly 19,850 miles over three years, or about 9,300 miles per year, which matches the typical usage for a seven‑year‑old Tucson. The intervals between tests are consistent, with no extended periods of inactivity, and the 2023 failure occurred at the same mileage as the subsequent pass, suggesting the issue was rectified promptly. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear parking brake mechanism for correct operation and check the condition of the front brake discs and pads for any residual scoring or uneven wear. The tyres, which showed cracking or perishing in 2024, merit a close look for sidewall damage and tread depth, and the suspension bushes, coil springs and chassis should be examined for rust, corrosion or structural weakness that could affect handling. Overall the vehicle appears presently roadworthy, but the history of brake component wear and the rear parking brake fault warrants a thorough in‑person assessment of braking and suspension systems before purchase.
