2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6L Petrol · TY03 ANA

The vehicle presents a stable but reactive maintenance profile, passing its most recent MOT on 12 November 2025 at 77,477 miles. While the car remains roadworthy, the record shows a recurring pattern of addressing consumable wear only when it approaches legal limits. The most recent test flagged both the offside rear tyre being worn close to the legal limit and thin rear brake pads. This indicates that the previous owner tends to operate the vehicle until components require replacement rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a 2017 vehicle. The car has covered approximately 77,477 miles over nine years, averaging roughly 8,600 miles annually. The progression from 53,713 miles in November 2021 to 77,477 miles in November 2025 shows steady, predictable use without significant periods of long-term storage or sudden high-mileage surges. This steady usage pattern suggests the mechanical components have been subjected to regular, moderate stress. A prospective buyer should focus on the braking system and tyre wear patterns during a physical inspection. The MOT history shows brake pads were flagged as thin in November 2022, November 2023, and again in November 2025. This repetition suggests the rear braking components may require more frequent attention or that the calipers are not distributing pressure optimally. The recurring advisories for tyres worn on the edges, specifically noted in November 2022, November 2024, and November 2025, could indicate an underlying wheel alignment issue or suspension geometry problem that has not been fully rectified. Beyond these consumables, the absence of structural corrosion or suspension bush defects in the records is a positive indicator. However, given the trend of waiting for wear to manifest as an advisory, a thorough check of the brake discs for scoring and the suspension for play is recommended to ensure no deeper mechanical issues have been overlooked.
