I’m seriously considering buying a 2018 Hyundai Tucson 2.0 CRDi Premium SE Auto 4WD (Euro 6) with 95,000 miles on it. The engine seems to be running well, and it’s had regular services every 20,000 miles. I’m close to finalizing the deal at £11,000.
For those who own or have experience with this model, what can I expect? Are there any issues to watch out for at this mileage or general pros and cons of this edition?

Services every 20K miles??? That’s way too much mileage between oil changes.
I wouldn’t touch that.
At least in the UK where this appears to be, 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, is the recommended interval for services. Unless the diesel had an extended service period I didn’t know about.
Not sure why it appears the previous owners skipped every other milestone if that is the case.
Also OP, the facelifted model for that era came out in 2018. You might get something a little newer for not much more.
Check the service manual. If it was serviced on time (I had a Vauxhall in the UK with 20k mile service points), then you’re good. If the owner had been missing services, run away. If anything goes wrong in the future, Hyundai aren’t going to be helping you.
At 95,000 miles, the owner is dumping this before their original 100,000 miles warranty is up; what do they know that you haven’t spotted yet?

It’s a right side drive car, so most likely km not imperial miles they posted. Either way, it certainly doesn’t get better lol.
I have no idea which country that car is in, was going off of what OP posted.
