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

This 2002 Seat has 12 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 27,623 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 'Not valid' MOT status, demands thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 5,971 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 2,231 miles between Feb 2013 and Mar 2014).

Things to check

  • Brake system failures: 3 major failures (Mar 2009, Mar 2014) and 3 related advisories (Feb 2006, Feb 2007, Feb 2008).
  • Shock absorber leak: Offside Rear Shock absorber has a serious fluid leak (Mar 2014 FAIL).
  • Exhaust leak: Recurring exhaust leak advisory (Feb 2006, Feb 2007, Feb 2008).
  • Mileage anomaly: Significant drop in annual usage (e.g., 2,231 miles Feb 2013-Mar 2014).

Working in its favour

  • Recent clean MOT pass: Passed on 2014-03-10 after addressing failures.
  • Consistent mileage: No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious readings.
  • No recent failures: No failures recorded in the last 2 years of MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
