2004 SEAT Alhambra TDI S 1.9L Diesel · YCZ 6040

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its last four MOT tests from 2018 to 2022. The most recent test on 2022-01-11 at 189,245 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged, suggesting the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep. However, the absence of MOT records post-2022 raises questions about the vehicle’s current condition, as its age and mileage now exceed the tested parameters by four years. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging 8,602 miles annually. Tests from 2018 to 2022 show steady increases of approximately 10,000–12,000 miles per year, with no abrupt spikes or extended periods of inactivity. This pattern suggests regular use rather than prolonged storage, reducing risks of fluid degradation or component stagnation. The clean MOT history through 2022 implies no major mechanical failures, though the lack of recent data limits confidence in its present state. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common wear items in vehicles of this age. The braking system, including disc wear and caliper function, warrants scrutiny, as does the exhaust for corrosion given the vehicle’s age. While no prior issues were recorded, the absence of recent MOTs means hidden faults—such as undetected rust or drivetrain wear—could exist. A professional inspection is advised to confirm the integrity of critical components beyond the recorded data.
