This 2016 Seat has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 26,669 miles. The recent MOT pass in Feb 2026 is a positive, but the underlying wear items require thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,572 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent pass in Feb 2026 confirms no odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Feb 2022, Feb 2023, Feb 2024) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad advisories across 3 tests (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Jan 2022) suggest a pattern of neglect.
- Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (Feb 2025 failure) is a significant suspension component failure.
- The Feb 2026 MOT pass followed a failure just days prior, suggesting a borderline pass.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until February 2027, offering peace of mind for the next 12 months.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,572 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No major structural or engine failures recorded in the MOT history.
- Recent Feb 2026 MOT pass after a failure, indicating the owner addressed the issues promptly.
