SEAT IBIZA2022 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and shows an improving maintenance trend following a period of neglect. The most recent test in September 2025 at 50,442 miles recorded no defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in the previous year have been addressed. This transition suggests the owner took proactive action to rectify repairs once they were flagged, rather than allowing faults to persist. The car has covered 50,442 miles over approximately four years, averaging roughly 12,600 miles per annum. This usage is higher than the national average for a small hatchback and places consistent demand on wear-and-tear components. Between June 2025 and September 2025, the vehicle covered 2,331 miles in just three months. This rapid accumulation of mileage explains the significant wear observed on the braking system components during the mid-2025 inspection. A buyer should perform a thorough physical inspection of the front braking system to ensure the recent replacements were executed correctly. Since the June 2025 test flagged both nearside and offside front brake discs as pitted and scored alongside thin inner pads, it is vital to check for any uneven pad wear or sticking calipers that might have caused the premature deterioration. Given the high mileage relative to the age, also inspect the suspension bushings and shock absorbers for signs of accelerated fatigue, as these components often degrade under high-mileage cycles.
