2014 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · DA64 AED

The vehicle is currently without a valid MOT certificate, as the last recorded pass occurred on 11 October 2023. While the technical record shows a clean bill of health at that time with no defects or advisories, the car has been off the official testing cycle for over nine months relative to the current date of 18 July 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable in terms of mechanical failures, though the pattern of multiple failures on the same day suggests minor administrative or quick-fix issues rather than deep-seated mechanical decay. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 6,124 miles per year. Between 30 September 2022 and 11 October 2023, the odometer increased by 5,066 miles, moving from 68,423 to 73,489 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps preserve rubber seals and prevents battery degradation. A physical inspection should focus on components that the MOT record cannot fully validate due to the current lapse in testing. Specifically, check the condition of the brake discs and pads for surface corrosion and ensure the tyres have not developed flat spots or perished during the period of inactivity. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade on twelve year old vehicles regardless of low mileage. Verify the structural integrity of the underbody and sills for corrosion. While no rust was flagged in the 2022 or 2023 tests, the lack of recent data means a buyer must confirm that no new oxidation has developed. A full service check is recommended to ensure the engine oil and coolant are fresh, as the vehicle has not been formally certified as roadworthy for a significant window of time.
