2016 Hyundai Santa FE 2.2L Diesel · EJ66 ACY

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend with a clean roadworthiness record. The most recent test on 24 October 2025 at 65,644 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting a high standard of mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a ten year old vehicle. It covered 8,347 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and 7,983 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. These figures align with the overall average of roughly 6,564 miles per year. The brief failure on 17 October 2023 at 49,017 miles was resolved within the same day, indicating a minor issue that was rectified immediately. The absence of advisories across multiple years is rare for a vehicle of this age. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bush wear, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust leaks. The record suggests the previous owner did not neglect basic consumables or ignore early warning signs of wear. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT tester may overlook, such as the condition of the interior trim and the operational status of the air conditioning system. Given the low mileage and lack of structural flags, the primary concern for a buyer is verifying that the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which can lead to perished tyres or battery degradation.
