2019 Hyundai Santa FE 2.5L Petrol · AD68 LNH

The most recent MOT on 22 September 2023 was passed, but it flagged all four front and rear tyres as “slightly damaged/cracking or perishing”. This is the only defect recorded across three years of MOTs; the 2022 and 2021 tests showed no issues. The appearance of tyre damage on every wheel suggests a developing wear problem rather than an isolated puncture. Compared with the clean 2022 and 2021 results, the trend is moving from stable to a mild deterioration in tyre condition. No other mechanical or safety items have been flagged, so the overall condition appears otherwise stable. At 64,130 mi for a seven‑year‑old 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe, the mileage works out to roughly 9,000 mi per year, which is typical for a family SUV. This figure does not point to heavy abuse, but it also does not rule out periods of low use that can allow tyres to age and dry out. In short, the mileage signal is neutral – neither a clear sign of excessive wear nor of prolonged inactivity. For a buyer, the first inspection should focus on the tyres: check tread depth, look for uneven wear, and verify that the sidewalls are free of cracks. While the tyres are the only recorded issue, it is prudent to also glance at the suspension and brakes, as worn tyres can sometimes mask underlying alignment or component wear.
