2017 SEAT Leon 1.4L Petrol · KU67 BNN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with an improving maintenance trend following a period of neglect. The most recent test conducted in December 2025 at 58,979 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the previous owner addressed the mechanical failures identified in the prior year. This clean pass marks a positive shift from the 2024 failure where the car was rejected due to critical brake wear and bald tyres. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. There is a notable gap in records between September 2021 and September 2022, where the car covered only 13,780 miles in thirteen months, but usage accelerated recently with over 10,000 miles covered between October 2023 and December 2024. This frequency suggests the vehicle is currently being used regularly, which explains the accelerated wear on consumable components seen in the later records. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension system, as the September 2022 test flagged leaks on all three shock absorbers. While these were noted as slightly wet at the time, the buyer must verify if the seals have deteriorated into active leaks that require immediate replacement. Additionally, the 2024 failure regarding rear inner brake pads and insufficient tyre tread highlights a history of overlooking basic maintenance. A close check of the current tyres for uneven wear is necessary to ensure no alignment issues are present following the previous tyre failures.
