AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Seat has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 70,433 miles. While many failures were immediately rectified, the repeated advisories for shock absorbers and tyres suggest ongoing wear and potential neglect.
The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 12,842 miles/year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles/year, which will accelerate wear on components.
Things to check
- Recurring Nearside Front Shock Absorber advisory (Oct 2022) escalated to MAJOR failure (May 2026).
- Recurring Nearside Headlamp aim issues (Oct 2022, May 2026) indicate a persistent electrical or mechanical fault.
- High annual mileage (12,842 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) will accelerate component wear.
- Multiple tyre advisories (May 2026) suggest a need for immediate replacement.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-19 provides immediate peace of mind.
- All major failures were immediately rectified, demonstrating prompt owner attention.
- No mileage discrepancies or signs of odometer fraud detected in the MOT history.
