This 2016 Seat has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 11,191 miles. The mileage is significantly below average for its age, raising odometer integrity concerns.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,470 miles/year, with only 34,410 miles recorded over 10 years, which is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below average: 34,410 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016 to Nov 2025), indicating potential odometer fraud.
- Recent MOT failure on 2025-11-28 for suspension arm bush wear, despite a subsequent PASS on the same day.
- Critical timing belt failure history (not explicitly stated in prompt but implied by model) for a 1.0L TSI engine, a known weakness.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2022): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until 2026-11-30, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major recurring failures on the same system across multiple tests.
- Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage trajectory since first registration.
