BYD SEAL U COMFORT DM-I PHEV AUTO2025 · 1.5L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on January 2026 at 64,339 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a successful result in the March 2024 test at 54,457 miles, which also returned a clean sheet. The maintenance trend appears stable, suggesting the previous owners have proactively addressed issues before they resulted in failures. The mileage profile indicates consistent and heavy use, averaging approximately 12,800 miles per year over the five-year period. Between the March 2024 and January 2026 tests, the vehicle covered 9,882 miles, showing a steady usage pattern rather than long periods of inactivity. While the higher-than-average mileage typically implies greater strain on drivetrain components, the lack of any advisories across this distance suggests that the mechanical systems have not been subjected to extreme neglect or poor road conditions. Despite the clean digital record, a physical inspection should focus on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. A buyer should scrutinise the suspension bushes for signs of tearing and check coil springs for fractures, as these often show fatigue after 60,000 miles. The brake system should be examined for caliper binding or thinning discs to ensure the high mileage has not accelerated consumable wear prematurely. Given the vehicle's age and usage, checking the chassis for early signs of corrosion is also prudent to ensure the structural integrity remains sound.
