AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2025‑07‑10 MOT passed with no defects, confirming that the SEAT IBIZA is presently roadworthy, and the recent result suggests a positive maintenance trend compared with earlier failures. The mileage of 56,408 miles at 15 years averages 3,761 miles per year, which is low for the model’s age, yet the interval from July 2018 at 22,456 miles to July 2020 at 40,258 miles records an 18,000‑mile increase, indicating a period of more intensive use. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear brake calipers and discs for binding, examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify tyre tread condition especially the inner‑edge wear noted in 2020, check for structural rust on the chassis, confirm the parking brake adjustment, and look for the rear oil leak recorded in 2015.
