2018 SEAT Leon 1.6L Diesel · CX68 OVC

The SEAT Leon presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 June 2025 at 37,630 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 23 July 2024 at 35,301 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have carried through. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across its five-year MOT span. Recorded mileage sits low for an eight-year-old car. The odometer read 23,804 miles at the 8 August 2022 test, rose to 30,072 by 11 August 2023, then 35,301 by July 2024, and 37,630 by June 2025. That equates to roughly 4,700 miles per year. The clean record with no advisories across all entries suggests either light use or disciplined servicing, though the single failed test on 22 July 2024 at 35,301 miles with no defects logged points to an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, with the car passing the next day. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's low mileage and likely periods of standing. Dormant vehicles often develop corroded brake calipers or perished rubber components that a pass with no defects may not capture if wear sits below test thresholds. Check underneath for structural integrity and exhaust corrosion, and verify the tyres have not aged-cracked from low use. The history implies conscientious upkeep, but low annual mileage warrants hands-on checks of consumables and chassis that paper records cannot fully evidence.
