2013 SEAT LEON1.6L Diesel

The SEAT Leon presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 21 November 2025 at 102,844 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, with each annual test ultimately resulting in a pass and no advisories or mechanical faults logged at any stage. The vehicle shows a clean record with no recurring wear patterns or structural concerns raised by testers. Mileage has accumulated at a typical rate for a 2013 vehicle, rising from 80,284 miles at the November 2023 test to 92,074 miles in November 2024 and 102,844 miles by November 2025. That equates to roughly 10,800 miles per year over the recorded period, slightly above the lifetime average of 7,911 but consistent with normal private use. The DVSA data is sparse, showing only three pass outcomes and two same-day failures with no defects listed, which suggests administrative or documentation issues rather than mechanical neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the absence of flagged faults. The MOT record carries no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, so attention should fall on consumables not captured by the test such as tyre condition, wiper blades, and fluid levels. The two failed entries on 22 November 2024 and 21 November 2025 with zero defects recorded warrant clarification from the seller, as a fail with no listed reason points to a clerical error or withdrawn test rather than a resolved breakdown. Given the clean trajectory and ordinary mileage, the Leon appears to have received reasonable upkeep from its previous keepers. No worsening trend or serious mechanical risk emerges from the official history. A pre-purchase check of underside structural integrity and brake component thickness remains sensible on a thirteen-year-old car, but the documentary evidence supports a sound roadworthiness verdict.
