2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.7L Diesel · WV18 ACY

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and high standard of mechanical maintenance. The most recent test on 13 March 2026 at 54,224 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. Although the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between 16 March 2023 at 33,870 miles and 13 March 2026 at 54,224 miles, the car covered 20,354 miles. This averages roughly 6,785 miles per year, suggesting regular use without excessive wear or prolonged periods of standing, which helps preserve rubber components and prevents battery degradation. The absence of any advisories or failures across four years of testing is unusual for an eight year old vehicle. There are no recurring flags for suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions. The record implies a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner, as even common consumable wear like tyre tread or wiper blades never triggered a tester's note. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT does not comprehensively cover. Check the service history for evidence of oil changes and filter replacements to ensure the engine has been maintained beyond the basic roadworthiness requirements. Inspect the brake pads and tyre depths manually to determine if they are nearing the end of their life, as the clean MOT record provides no data on how much remaining life these consumables actually have.
