2014 SEAT Ibiza 1.2L Petrol · KT14 ADZ

The SEAT Ibiza passed its most recent MOT on 30 July 2025 at 89,162 miles with only two minor tyre advisories on the rear edges. The maintenance trend is broadly stable and improving. The 2023 February failure for wiper, suspension bush, SRS lamp and brake binding faults was rectified within ten days, and later tests show those serious items cleared. Recurring wear now sits in consumable territory rather than structural risk. Recorded mileage rose from 66,056 in March 2022 to 89,162 by July 2025, an average of roughly 7,700 miles per year against a 12-year life of 89,162 total. That figure sits near typical use for a 2014 supermini. A notable gap appears between the February 2023 and August 2024 tests where no intermediate record exists, yet 9,218 miles accrued. The sparse early history limits insight into pre-2022 care. Buyers should physically inspect the front suspension arms and steering rack inner joint flagged in August 2024, where the tester noted play in the offside rack joint and worn lower arm bushes. Rear brake discs pitted across all corners at that test; confirm they were replaced given the 2025 pass carried no brake advisories. The constant near-side dashboard tell-tale and non-obligatory stop lamp fault imply previous owners deferred minor electrical fixes. Check the rear tyres closely despite the July 2025 edge-wear advisory, and verify the SRS warning lamp from the 2023 failure no longer illuminates. The binding offside rear brake seen in 2022, 2023 and the 2023 fail suggests a caliper or handbrake mechanism once neglected but now resolved. Overall the mechanical record supports roadworthy condition with routine consumable upkeep required.
