2014 SEAT Ibiza 1.6L Diesel · DE64 ABZ

The 2014 SEAT IBIZA demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT record, which showed a pass on 2025-10-27 at 107,785 miles with no defects. However, the vehicle’s MOT history reveals repeated failures and passes at the same mileage, suggesting possible administrative errors or inconsistent testing standards. The absence of recorded defects in all tests implies no critical mechanical or structural issues were identified, but the lack of detailed fault reports limits confidence in the thoroughness of inspections. Mileage progression shows a gradual increase, with 96,115 miles in 2023, 103,407 in 2024, and 107,785 in 2025, aligning with the vehicle’s 12-year age. The 2025 test occurred 10 months prior to the current date, meaning the next MOT is due in October 2026. The data lacks anomalies, with no rapid mileage spikes or extended gaps, indicating consistent usage. However, the sparse defect records prevent assessment of wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, which are common in older vehicles. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the undercarriage for corrosion, especially around the chassis and exhaust system, as well as the suspension for worn coil springs or binding calipers. The absence of brake-related defects in MOT records does not eliminate the need to check for uneven pad wear or warped discs, which may not trigger immediate failures. Additionally, verifying the current MOT status is critical, as the last test expired over a year ago, and the vehicle’s roadworthiness post-2025 remains unconfirmed.
