2014 Hyundai Santa FE Premium Crdi Auto 2.2L Heavy oil · LE07 MCS

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a successful test on 18 April 2026 at 125,013 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the most recent inspection recorded no defects. While the vehicle failed a test on 27 March 2026 at 124,426 miles, it cleared all issues within three weeks to achieve a pass. This pattern of a recent failure followed by a clean pass suggests that necessary repairs were addressed promptly to maintain roadworthiness. The mileage accumulation follows a consistent pattern for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, with the mileage increasing from 81,148 miles in August 2021 to 125,013 miles in April 2026. A notable period of higher activity occurred between January 2023 and March 2024, where the vehicle covered nearly 12,000 miles. The absence of long periods of inactivity suggests the vehicle has been used regularly, which generally helps prevent issues like seized brake calipers or perished rubber components. The MOT history is remarkably clean, with no recorded advisories or specific mechanical failures such as suspension bushes, brake pad wear, or exhaust emissions issues across the documented years. The failures in March 2024 and March 2026 did not specify the nature of the defects in the provided data, but the subsequent clean passes indicate the vehicle is being maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements. A prospective buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underside for structural corrosion and check the condition of the suspension components and brake discs. Given the mileage has now exceeded 125,000 miles, particular attention should be paid to the timing belt, turbocharger health, and automatic transmission fluid condition, as these are not covered by the MOT testing regime but are critical for long-term reliability on a diesel engine of this age.
