2003 SEAT CORDOBA1.4L PETROL

The 2010 MOT entry, the most recent recorded, shows the vehicle passed with minor notes: front tyres worn from inner edges, under body covers fitted, and travel on hand brake. These suggest potential alignment issues or suspension wear, though no critical defects were listed. The 2009 MOT noted an oil leak, while the 2008 MOT included a failure for brake imbalances, uneven front brake application, and a deteriorated rear exhaust. Earlier MOTs in 2007 and 2008 (before the failure) showed no defects. The pattern of issues includes recurring brake-related problems in 2008, which were not repeated in later tests, and tyre wear in 2010. The oil leak in 2009 and under body covers in multiple years may indicate ongoing maintenance or corrosion risks. While the 2010 MOT shows no major defects, the 2008 failure highlights significant brake and exhaust concerns that were presumably addressed. However, the lack of MOT data post-2010 means the current condition is unknown. The vehicle’s mileage of 117,758 miles over 23 years equates to roughly 5,120 miles annually, which is low for its age. This could reflect light use or prolonged periods of inactivity, both of which may contribute to component degradation (e.g., seized brakes, rubber deterioration).
