2022 Hyundai Tucson SE Connect T-GDI 1.6L Petrol · YR72 UEG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 24 October 2025. However, the record reveals a pattern of reactive maintenance rather than proactive care, as the car failed the test on that same day due to critical safety defects. While the immediate rectification of the windscreen wipers and the offside front tyre allowed the vehicle to pass, the initial failure suggests that the previous owner only addressed faults once forced by the legal inspection requirement. At a recorded mileage of 36,205 miles, the Tucson has averaged approximately 9,000 miles per year over its four years. This aligns closely with typical UK usage patterns for a family SUV, suggesting the drivetrain and major components have not been subjected to excessive stress from high-mile commuting. The lack of mechanical defects in the October 2025 pass indicates that the core structural integrity and braking systems remain in good condition for this age bracket. A buyer should personally inspect the condition of all rubber-work and wiper blades, as the previous failure highlights a lapse in monitoring basic consumables. Since the offside front tyre was below the 1.6mm legal limit, it is essential to check the remaining tyres for uneven wear patterns which might indicate an alignment issue. Given the low mileage relative to the age, a check of the suspension bushes and brake discs is advised to ensure that periods of standing have not caused premature seizing or corrosion of these components.
