2017 SEAT Leon 1.6L Diesel · SG17 AEA

This vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 27 June 2025 at 152,239 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to May 2021, indicating that the previous owners addressed mechanical issues before presenting the car for its annual inspection. The mileage is high for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 16,915 miles per year. There has been a significant increase in usage recently, with 15,072 miles added between July 2024 and June 2025. The accumulation from May 2021 at 71,344 miles to the current 152,239 miles shows the car has covered over 80,000 miles in four years, suggesting heavy motorway or commercial use. While the lack of MOT advisories is positive, the high mileage necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these typically degrade under this level of stress. The brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining thickness to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. Attention should also be paid to the drivetrain and engine mounts. Given the mileage, checking for oil leaks or excessive play in the steering rack is prudent. Despite the clean DVSA record, the physical wear on the interior and the state of the chassis for corrosion should be verified to ensure the mechanical upkeep matches the paperwork.
