2018 SEAT IBIZA1.0L Petrol

The SEAT Ibiza presents a broadly roadworthy profile as of its most recent MOT on 29 April 2025, where it passed at 65,774 miles with no defects logged. Maintenance trend reads stable across the recorded history, albeit with an anomalous failure on the same date at identical mileage that listed no defects; the subsequent pass suggests either a clerical duplication or immediate rectification. Prior tests in May 2022, May 2023 and May 2024 all returned passes with clean sheets, showing no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for an eight-year-old hatchback. The record shows 39,267 miles at the 18 May 2022 test, rising to 43,625 by 17 May 2023 and 51,940 by 15 May 2024, then jumping to 65,774 by 29 April 2025. That final interval covers roughly thirteen thousand miles in under twelve months, a moderate acceleration from the earlier four to eight thousand annual rates, yet still within expected parameters. No extended gaps exist between tests; the owner maintained annual scrutiny and the data remains sparse on faults. Previous keepers addressed consumables before each examination, as the absence of recorded advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs or corrosion confirms. The clean history implies basic upkeep was not skipped, though a buyer should not infer perpetual condition from a snapshot. In person, inspect front lower arm bushes for radial cracking, probe subframe and sills for structural rust, and confirm rear calipers move freely without binding. The duplicated test entry on 29 April 2025 merits a query to the vendor for workshop invoices. Regardless, the Ibiza's mechanical record supports a sound purchase subject to an independent pre-sale inspection of drivetrain mounts and exhaust emissions under load.
