 No later than 2014 to avoid the spyware gulag. You can of course find the right shop to disable gulag tech from your car. Probably simpler to not have it in the firstplace.

 Definitely not a hard and fast rule for 2014, GM vehicles had On-Star in like 2004 I think, but they ran on 3g I think so most are inoperable now. I can't speak for ANY vehicles outside the US. 

If your looking for a spyware free vehicle, you probably shouldn't consider anything newer. I believe most European countries have also mandated full "tracking" even always-on cameras. In the US they are requiring vehicles mad after 2025? (I think) to have in-car cameras capable of knowing if you are too impaired to drive and lock you out.  
 RIP I'm in the EU 
 Whats the best second hand 🚗 marketplace in the #eulag ?
