2010 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · DA10 OGF

The SEAT Ibiza presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 August 2022 at 108,179 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the record is sparse and shows two failed tests earlier in 2021 and 2022 where the tester logged no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues rather than progressive mechanical decline. Mileage stands at 108,179 against a 2010 registration, equating to roughly 6,761 miles per year and typical use for the age. The gap between the 17 June 2021 test at 104,012 miles and the 5 August 2022 pass at 108,179 shows only 4,167 miles covered in fourteen months. Two tests on 17 June 2021 and 16 June 2022 both recorded fails with zero defects noted at 104,012 and 108,144 miles respectively, suggesting the vehicle sat idle between tests or the failures concerned non-itemised criteria. A buyer should physically verify the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition given the car's sixteen-year age and low annual use, as standing periods accelerate corrosion on structural members and brake components. The clean advisories across all entries mean no worn tyres or binding calipers were flagged, but the duplicated fail-with-no-defect entries warrant a check of the VIN and test station records to confirm the history is genuine. Given the last test dated August 2022, the MOT is now nearly four years expired relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. No current roadworthiness can be assumed without a fresh test, and a full inspection of exhaust emissions and structural integrity is essential before any purchase.
