2018 SEAT LEON1.4L Petrol

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a trend currently moving toward improved maintenance standards. The most recent inspection conducted in April 2026 at 46,357 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed. This follows a minor failure in mid-2024, but the subsequent two clean tests suggest the current owner is proactive in rectifying defects as flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per annum. Data shows consistent usage over time, though there was a gap of 8,569 miles between July 2023 and March 2025. While low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine, the intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and tyres, which is reflected in the recurring tyre-related issues. A buyer should perform a physical inspection specifically on the front suspension assembly. The record notes a light misting on the nearside front shock absorber in June 2024 at 34,912 miles. Although this passed the following tests, a manual check should ensure the seal has not deteriorated into an active leak. Additionally, the history of repeated uneven tyre wear and exposed cords in 2021, 2022, and 2024 suggests a potential history of alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature tyre failure.
