2018 Hyundai Tucson SE NAV T-GDI 2WD S-A 1.6L Other · Y8 ADA

The 2018 Hyundai Tucson SE Nav T-GDI 2WD S-A passed its most recent MOT on 13 November 2024 at 37,130 miles with no defects recorded. This represents a clean, uninterrupted record across three consecutive annual tests dating back to November 2022, with no advisories, minor, major, or dangerous defects logged at any point. The maintenance trend is clearly stable and presents no evidence of recurring mechanical or structural deterioration. From a roadworthiness standpoint, the official record presents this vehicle as a low-risk prospect. The vehicle has covered approximately 37,130 miles over roughly eight years, averaging around 4,641 miles annually. This is notably low for its age and suggests the car has spent considerable periods stationary or used primarily for short local trips. The mileage progression between tests shows a gradual increase from 23,828 miles in November 2022 to 29,801 miles in November 2023 (a gain of roughly 5,973 miles) and then to 37,130 miles in November 2024 (a further gain of approximately 7,329 miles). The slight acceleration in annual mileage between the second and third test years is worth noting, though the overall usage remains modest. The MOT data alone provides no cause for concern regarding mileage anomalies or irregular usage patterns. Despite the clean MOT record, buyers should conduct thorough physical inspections given the low-mileage usage profile. Extended periods of standing can accelerate degradation of rubber components including tyres, suspension bushes, and brake line seals, even when not reflected in visual MOT checks. The turbocharged 2.0-litre T-GDI engine warrants verification of service history for oil changes and air filter replacements, as low-mileage vehicles often miss manufacturer service intervals based on time rather than distance. Brake discs and calipers should be examined for corrosion or binding, particularly on a vehicle that may have covered many short journeys where brakes do not fully heat up to evaporate moisture. Finally, the automatic transmission fluid condition and service intervals should be confirmed, as dual-clutch and conventional automatics degrade faster without regular fluid changes regardless of mileage covered.
