2010 Hyundai Santa FE Premium Crdi 2.2L Diesel · ESZ 4565

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection on 22 January 2026 at 124,089 miles without any recorded defects. This followed a curious failure just ten days prior on 12 January 2026 at 124,027 miles, though the lack of recorded defects for that failure suggests an administrative error or a re-test cancellation rather than a mechanical fault. The consistent passes over the last three years indicate a vehicle that has maintained a baseline level of mechanical integrity regarding MOT safety standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 111,031 miles and October 2023 at 116,247 miles, the car covered 5,216 miles, showing a period of lower usage. However, use increased significantly between November 2024 and January 2026, where 3,560 miles were covered in just over fourteen months. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle remains in regular use, which generally prevents the degradation of rubber components and brake seals often seen in long periods of inactivity. Since the MOT history shows no advisories or recurring faults, a buyer must focus the physical inspection on common wear points for this generation of the Santa Fe. Prioritize a check for structural corrosion on the rear sills and subframe, as these models are prone to rust. You should also inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or fatigue, as these do not trigger an MOT failure until they become critical. Given the mileage, verify the brake fluid for moisture and check the condition of the turbocharger hoses to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual mechanical state of the drivetrain.
