2010 Hyundai Santa FE 2.2L Diesel · FN60 CFA

The vehicle currently maintains a clean MOT status following the pass recorded on 2 October 2025 at 149,900 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the most recent test resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows a failed test on the same day as the pass in both 2023 and 2025, the absence of specific defect descriptions suggests these failures were likely administrative or related to minor issues rectified immediately on-site, rather than indicative of systemic mechanical failure. The recorded mileage of 149,900 over a sixteen-year period equates to an average of approximately 9,369 miles per annum, which is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this classification. The progression of mileage is logical and steady, with roughly 7,600 miles added between August 2024 and October 2025. This consistent accumulation suggests the vehicle has remained in regular operation rather than suffering from prolonged periods of inactivity, which often leads to seized components or perished rubber seals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas common to the Santa Fe platform, specifically the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs, as these components often show signs of fatigue at this mileage. Although the MOT history is clean, check the underside for signs of structural corrosion on the subframes and sills, as surface rust can be overlooked during routine testing. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and listen for any abnormal drivetrain noise during a test drive to ensure the transmission and differential remain in good health despite the high mileage.
