2007 Hyundai Santa FE 2.2L Diesel · LD07 SZW

The Hyundai Santa Fe presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 31 March 2026 at 99,202 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history. A failed test logged on the same date at identical mileage but with no defects listed suggests an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical concern, and the car subsequently passed the same day. Annual mileage sits low for a 2007 vehicle, averaging roughly 5,200 miles per year against the recorded 99,202 miles. The record shows 88,499 miles on 18 March 2024, rising to 88,501 the next day and passing on 19 March 2024, then 95,329 by 21 March 2025 and 99,202 by March 2026. The sparse, clean history with no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues points to light use, though long standing periods between short annual journeys remain plausible given the low accumulation. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record captures only test-day condition and a 19-year-old vehicle can hide rust outside the test bay. The tester recorded no advisories on coil springs, binding calipers, or tyre tread across all entries, so consumable wear appears managed by previous owners. Verify the 31 March 2026 failure reason with DVSA, since the no-defects notation is atypical and warrants confirmation before purchase.
