2014 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · DA14 HBC

The 2014 SEAT Ibiza presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 January 2026 at 89,889 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests also passed cleanly. The January 2025 entry shows a fail and a pass on the same day at 81,816 miles with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 89,889 against roughly 7,491 miles per year for a 12-year-old car, a typical accumulation that suggests steady private use rather than high-stress fleet duty. From the January 2023 test at 72,063 miles to January 2026 at 89,889, the car added about 17,826 miles over three years, with no sudden jumps or standing gaps that would raise damp-related corrosion or flat-spotting concerns. The DVSA history is sparse and clean, showing no advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions across the record. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, since MOT passes with no defects do not capture early surface rust on sills or subframes. The absence of any flagged binding calipers, worn coil springs, or failing emissions means no recurring mechanical trend is evident, but pre-purchase checks on brake caliper slide freedom and suspension arm compliance remain sensible on a car of this age and mileage.
