2017 SEAT Ibiza 1.2L Petrol · AF17 ADU

The 2017 SEAT IBIZA demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last five MOT tests, including the most recent 2026-02-24 inspection at 57,603 miles. All prior tests from 2022 to 2025 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the vehicle has been well-kept, with no recurring faults in critical systems like brakes, suspension, or emissions. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles annually. Tests spaced 12 months apart show steady accumulation, with no significant gaps or rapid increases that might indicate neglect or excessive wear. The 2024-03-01 test at 51,198 miles and 2023-03-02 at 47,819 miles reflect regular servicing, while the 2022-03-01 test at 42,642 miles marks the earliest recorded data. This clean, consistent pattern suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to prolonged inactivity or harsh operating conditions. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, to confirm no hidden wear despite the MOT’s clean record. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop over time without triggering immediate failures. The exhaust system and underbody corrosion, especially in coastal or high-moisture areas, warrant scrutiny. While the MOT history shows no red flags, these areas remain critical for long-term reliability and should be verified by a qualified mechanic.
