2018 SEAT Leon 2.0L Diesel · P23 LAE

The roadworthiness status of this 2018 SEAT Leon is currently sound, supported by an exceptionally clean compliance record. The maintenance trend is entirely stable, underpinned by a flawless run of tests stretching back several years. In the most recent test conducted on March 10, 2026, at an unrecorded mileage, the vehicle passed with zero defects or advisories noted by the tester. The vehicle accumulates mileage at a steady and typical rate for its age, reaching a recorded 79,350 miles by the time of our evaluation in August 2026. Looking back through the DVSA database, the car underwent annual testing on March 10, 2022, March 8, 2023, March 14, 2024, and February 27, 2025. All four of these preceding examinations also resulted in clean passes with zero defects recorded. This data is exceptionally sparse regarding mechanical faults, revealing a complete absence of the recurring advisories typically seen on vehicles of this era. Prospective buyers should approach physical inspection with standard due diligence, focusing on consumable components that do not always trigger an MOT advisory until failure is imminent. Because the testing history offers no clues about suspension wear, brake disc condition, or tyre health, a hands-on check of the brake pads, shock absorbers, and subframe mountings remains necessary. The absence of historical fails or advisories indicates that previous test outcomes were clear, but a thorough physical examination of the mechanical and structural underside is still required to confirm real-world condition.
