2017 SEAT Ibiza 1.8L Petrol · AX02 ALE

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 August 2025 at 55,741 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same date, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent and typical for a nine year old car, averaging roughly 6,193 miles per year. There is a notable increase in annual usage recently; the vehicle covered 12,869 miles between August 2023 and August 2024, compared to 10,417 miles in the preceding year. This shift indicates a transition to heavier use, yet the car has maintained a clean bill of health throughout this period. The absence of any advisories or failures across five years of testing is rare. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions from 22,655 miles in 2022 through to the current reading. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or very light duty cycles that have spared the chassis from significant corrosion and wear. A buyer should still perform a physical check of the consumables. Because the MOT record is devoid of advisories, it provides no data on the current state of tyre tread or brake pad thickness. Inspect the tyres for uneven wear and check the service history for evidence of oil changes and timing belt intervals, as these critical maintenance items are not captured in a standard MOT test.
