2018 SEAT Leon 1.8L Petrol · AF68 BWP

The SEAT Leon presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 October 2025 at 48,185 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes show no advisories or faults. The vehicle has cleared every examination since its 2022 test without mechanical or structural concerns. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,000 miles, typical for an eight-year-old car. The records show 22,728 miles on 23 September 2022, rising to 36,371 miles at the September 2023 tests, then 45,440 miles on 23 October 2024 and 48,185 miles by October 2025. The jump between 2022 and 2023 reflects about 13,600 miles in one year, double the norm, before settling back to lower use. The clean sheet across all entries gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the age and the elevated 2022 to 2023 mileage period that may have stressed those parts. The history flags no corrosion, exhaust emissions failures, or structural integrity issues, so no specific fault pattern demands targeted checking. The same-day fail and pass on 25 September 2023 at 36,371 and 36,382 miles, with no defects listed, points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical defect. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to test standard. Given the sparse but clean record, a pre-purchase check of tyre condition and underbody for early rust remains sensible.
