2006 SEAT Leon 1.6L Petrol · DA06 PPV

The SEAT Leon passed its most recent MOT on 6 October 2021 at 106,418 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend at the point of its last official test. The vehicle has not been submitted for an MOT since that date, leaving its current roadworthiness unverified for nearly five years relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. The recorded mileage shows an unusually low accumulation for a 2006 model, averaging roughly 5,321 miles per year across its life. The history captures only two entries nine days apart in late September and early October 2021, with the car at 106,409 miles on 29 September then 106,418 miles on 6 October. The failed test on 29 September 2021 at 106,409 miles listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical refusal rather than a fault-based failure, and the immediate pass days later confirms no repair work was required. Sparse data prevents assessment of longer-term wear patterns. A buyer must commission a fresh MOT and physical inspection before purchase. The absence of recorded advisories on the 2021 pass means no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion issues were flagged, but standing for close to five years risks perished rubber components, seized calipers, and structural rust unseen by the tester. Low annual mileage combined with long disuse often hides binding brakes and flat-spotted tyres. Previous ownership appears to have kept the car lightly used with minimal documented neglect, yet the expired test status demands caution. Verify the engine, drivetrain, and underbody condition personally given the gap since the last DVSA examination.
