2008 SEAT IBIZA1.4L Diesel

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 10 February 2026 at 116,703 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five-year trend of passing every annual inspection without a single advisory or failure, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for an 18-year-old car. Between February 2022 and February 2026, the odometer rose from 94,163 to 116,703 miles, averaging roughly 5,600 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. Despite the clean record, a buyer must still verify the condition of age-related components. The absence of MOT advisories does not guarantee the health of consumables. You should manually check the depth of the tyre treads and the thickness of the brake pads, as these are wear items that may not trigger a failure until they reach the legal limit. Pay close attention to the chassis and suspension during a physical inspection. Older SEAT models can be prone to corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points, which may not always be flagged if the structural integrity remains sufficient for a pass. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and ensure the gearbox shifts smoothly to complement the clean MOT data.
