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

This 2007 Seat has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 33,595 miles. The vehicle's age and past issues with critical safety components require a thorough pre-purchase inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 9,427 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but a 2022 service gap is concerning.

Things to check

  • 2022 MOT gap: Vehicle was off-road or not serviced, raising maintenance concerns.
  • Dangerous tyre failures: Both front tyres failed in Oct 2020 and rear tyres in Mar 2013.
  • Engine/Oil major failure: Engine oil level was incorrect in Apr 2019, a basic maintenance oversight.
  • Lights major failures: Multiple light failures (headlamp, stop lamp, position lamp) in Apr 2019 and Mar 2013.

Working in its favour

  • Clean recent MOT: Passed Jan 2023 with no current failures or advisories.
  • Consistent mileage: Normal annual usage of 9,427 miles/year, no fraud detected.
  • No recurring failures: Single major failure in 2019, no pattern of repeated system failures.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety: Excellent safety rating for a 2007 vehicle.
