2011 Hyundai Santa FE 2.2L Diesel · EN61 AFV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes in the recent years. The most recent test on 5 December 2025 at 76,060 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of clean passes throughout 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the owner has addressed any potential issues before they escalated into failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between January 2023 and December 2023, where the car covered only 1,382 miles in eleven months. However, the usage increased significantly between November 2024 and December 2025, covering 3,828 miles in a thirteen-month period. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or moisture-related issues in the brake system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to age and infrequent use rather than high mileage. The failure on 17 January 2023 at 67,805 miles, followed by a pass the following day, suggests a specific defect that was quickly rectified. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the chassis and suspension mounts is essential, as these areas degrade regardless of mileage. Additionally, inspect the brake system for seized calipers or perished hoses, which are common in vehicles that sit for long periods.
