2008 SEAT Altea 2.0L Diesel · KY08 AEA

This 2008 SEAT Altea holds a current MOT pass from the February 3, 2022 test at 149,848 miles, showing a stable short-term maintenance outcome following a refusal just six days prior. The record lacks recent data spanning the past four years up to July 2026, meaning an immediate fresh MOT test is mandatory before this vehicle can lawfully return to the public highway. The recorded mileage of 149,848 miles accumulates at an average rate of roughly 8,300 miles per year, representing typical usage for a diesel or petrol family hatchback of this age. The specific data window provided is exceptionally sparse, consisting solely of two tests conducted within a single week in January and February 2022. This narrow sample prevents any detailed chronological tracking of wear and tear, or observation of how long-term maintenance was handled prior to or after those dates. Inspecting this car in person requires careful scrutiny of major mechanical assemblies and structural integrity, given the advanced age and lack of intermediate test history. You should thoroughly check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers for fatigue or corrosion, alongside the brake discs and calipers for excessive pitting or binding. Pay close attention to the structural sills and subframes for rust, verify the operation of the exhaust emissions system, and confirm that all safety-critical consumables have been maintained properly despite the absence of recent DVSA test logs.
