2007 SEAT Leon Stylance 2.0L Diesel · SEZ 7039

The vehicle currently holds a clean bill of health, with the most recent MOT conducted on 30 December 2025 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This performance suggests a stable and highly positive maintenance trend, as the car has successfully cleared three consecutive annual inspections without a single advisory. The lack of recurring mechanical failures or persistent component wear in recent years indicates that the previous owner has likely adhered to a proactive servicing schedule, addressing potential issues before they reached the point of test failure. At 120,781 miles over a nineteen-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 6,357 miles per annum, which sits well within the expected range for a car of this age. The record shows a brief period of inactivity or administrative overlap between the failed test on 4 January 2023 and the successful re-test on 20 January 2023. Aside from this minor hiccup, the mileage accumulation appears consistent and linear. There is no evidence of rapid, high-intensity usage that would typically accelerate the degradation of the drivetrain or suspension geometry. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that often escape the scope of a standard MOT, such as the condition of the clutch and the responsiveness of the gearbox, which are high-wear items at this mileage. While the MOT history is clean, check the underside for early signs of corrosion on the sills and subframe, as the vehicle is now entering an age where structural rust can become a factor. Verify that the timing belt has been replaced according to the manufacturer schedule, as this is a critical maintenance item that does not appear in the DVSA test data. Given the recent clean passes, the car appears to be a well-maintained example, though a thorough check of the fluid levels and cooling system remains prudent to ensure long-term reliability.
