AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Seat has 19 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 16,768 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2027, the unexplained absence of MOT records for 6 years is a significant red flag.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 5,396 miles/year, with a significant 6-year MOT history gap from 2016 to 2022, making mileage trajectory analysis impossible.

Things to check

  • Critical 6-year MOT history gap from 2016 to 2022 — no records for 6 years.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (5,396 miles/year) for a 17-year-old vehicle.
  • Recurring major failures in windscreen, lights, and brakes across multiple tests.
  • Persistent advisories for worn tyres and steering components across 13 MOT tests.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-27, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recorded odometer fraud or suspicious mileage readings.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2022) suggests good inherent safety.
  • No recent major failures or dangerous defects in the last 2 years.
