This 2013 Seat has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 20,171 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the recent advisories on critical wear items like tyres and brake discs indicate significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,856 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, but is consistent with its usage history.
