AI verdict AVOID 40/100

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

This 2013 Seat has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 41,269 miles. This fundamental contradiction makes the vehicle unroadworthy and a legal liability.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Jun 2018 (354 mi/yr equivalent), but normal usage thereafter averaging 8,293 miles/year.

Things to check

  • MOT status is 'Not valid' as of the analysis date, despite a future expiry date of 2026-03-15.
  • The vehicle has been off-road for a significant period, as evidenced by the 2022 MOT gap.
  • Recurring major failures for windscreen and lights, with recent major failures for exhaust and position lamp.
  • Persistent advisories for tyres and brakes across multiple tests indicate ongoing wear and maintenance needs.

Working in its favour

  • No recorded failures for structural integrity, engine, or major mechanical systems.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,293 miles/year since 2018, suggesting normal usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
