2018 SEAT Leon 1.5L Petrol · DA68 ACZ

The 2018 SEAT Leon presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. In the August 2025 test at 48,036 miles the tester recorded no defects, continuing an unbroken pass sequence stretching back to 2021. The vehicle shows no advisories or failures across five consecutive annual examinations, indicating consistent mechanical condition and no worsening faults. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,000 miles, typical for an eight-year-old car. The records trace a steady climb: 25,954 miles in November 2021, 32,064 by November 2022, 39,834 in November 2023, 43,421 in August 2024, and 48,036 in August 2025. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests widened to nine months yet added only 3,587 miles, suggesting light use rather than neglect. No rapid accumulation or standing-still periods appear in the data. With zero advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion, the MOT history offers no red flags for a buyer. The clean sheet implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current. A pre-purchase inspection should still confirm tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody rust given the car's age, but the record gives no cause to suspect hidden mechanical risk. The Leon's documented care pattern reflects responsible ownership across its life. A buyer may proceed with standard due diligence rather than targeted fault investigation, since the DVSA data shows no recurring wear trends requiring remediation.
