2009 SEAT Leon 1.6L Petrol · DA59 KWV

The 2009 SEAT Leon presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 15 December 2025 at 94,847 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable. The test history shows clean passes in December 2023 at 90,314 miles and December 2024 at 92,556 miles, with two same-day failures on 11 December 2024 and 15 December 2025 logged at 92,553 and 94,843 miles respectively, both carrying no recorded defects. This pattern indicates administrative or presentation failures rather than mechanical faults, with the vehicle cleared and passed on the same date in each case. Annual mileage sits at roughly 5,579 miles against 17 years of age, a low figure for a mainstream hatchback. The records show steady annual use: 2,242 miles between December 2023 and December 2024, then 2,291 miles to December 2025. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The DVSA data is sparse and clean across all three years, with no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion entered by testers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. Low mileage with long standing periods risks perished rubber components, seized calipers, and surface rust on structural members not captured in a pass with no advisories. The twin same-day failures with zero defects warrant confirmation that no outstanding recall or documentation issue remains open. Check brake disc condition, coil spring integrity, and underbody structural integrity for hidden corrosion. Verify the owner skipped no interim servicing during the low-use years. The Leon's record implies careful, light use, but MOT silence is not proof of component health at 94,847 miles.
