2018 SEAT Ateca 1.6L Diesel · DA18 MYB

The SEAT Ateca presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 February 2026 at 95,564 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. No advisories or failures appear in any entry, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime. Annual mileage sits at roughly 11,946 miles, typical for an eight-year-old car. The records show consistent yearly use with no standing periods. Between 11 July 2022 at 66,276 miles and 22 May 2023 at 77,595 miles the car covered 11,319 miles, then only 296 miles by the 26 February 2024 test at 77,891 miles, suggesting limited running in that window before normal use resumed to 84,337 miles by February 2025 and 95,564 by February 2026. The DVSA data is sparse on fault detail because every test returned clear. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and underbody structural integrity, as the MOT record does not confirm their condition beyond pass criteria on the day. The absence of corrosion or exhaust emissions advisories is favourable, yet eight years of use will have aged rubber components and consumables outside the test scope. Verify service history to confirm routine fluid and timing belt intervals were met alongside this clean test lineage.
