2019 SEAT Leon 1.6L Diesel · CX69 KWH

This 2019 SEAT Leon has a low annual mileage of roughly 5,477 miles, suggesting it has been used lightly or may have spent periods standing. While the most recent MOT on 2 April 2026 was a pass, it followed a failure involving a structural tyre bulge and a serious shock absorber leak. The primary risk pattern is a chronic and worsening issue with the suspension. Since 2024, there have been repeated advisories for oil misting on the front and rear shock absorbers. This trend has progressed from light misting to a serious fluid leak on the nearside front, indicating a degradation of the damping system over time. The vehicle's condition trend is worsening regarding its suspension components. The recurring nature of these faults suggests that previous advisories were ignored until they became critical failures. There is also a history of a leaking hydraulic brake caliper and insecure undertrays, which points to a lack of proactive maintenance. A buyer should first inspect the shock absorbers for leaks and check the date and condition of all tyres to ensure the previous structural failure was properly addressed. A road test is essential to check for suspension knocks or instability.
