2017 SEAT Ateca 1.6L Diesel · AF17 AEG

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 90,672 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed the day prior on 22 July 2025, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It has covered approximately 10,075 miles per year over its nine-year lifespan. Usage increased notably between August 2023 and August 2024, with the odometer rising from 63,905 to 78,913 miles. This period of higher activity did not result in any MOT failures or advisories, indicating the vehicle handled the increased load without immediate mechanical degradation. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, showing no recorded advisories or failures across four years of testing. This lack of flagged issues suggests a disciplined approach to preventative maintenance by the previous owners. There are no recurring trends regarding suspension bushes, brake disc wear, or structural corrosion in the official record. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of common wear items that may not trigger an MOT failure. Focus on the condition of the brake pads and tyre tread depth, as these consumables often degrade between test intervals. Checking for signs of oil leaks or drivetrain noise is advised given the 90,000-mile threshold, though the DVSA data provides no cause for specific mechanical concern.
