AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle holds a clean MOT status following its most recent test on 16 January 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows three consecutive passes without any recorded defects or advisories since the vehicle's first recorded tests in early 2024. The recorded mileage of 48,581 miles aligns with the vehicle's age, representing an average annual usage of approximately 9,716 miles. The data shows consistent annual testing on 15 January 2024, 17 January 2025, and 16 January 2026. No significant gaps in testing or sudden spikes in mileage accumulation are evident within the provided documentation. Because the MOT history contains no recorded failures, advisories, or mechanical defects, there are no specific recurring faults to flag. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of common wear items such as brake pad thickness, tyre tread depth, and the condition of suspension bushes, as these consumables are not always captured in a passing MOT certificate if they remain within legal limits. Buying Score: 85 Risk Level: Low.

Our Verdict

A solid purchase option for those seeking a modern, low-mileage hatchback. The clean MOT history for this specific 2021 Blue SEAT Ibiza provides a reassuring baseline for potential buyers.

When inspecting this 999cc petrol Ibiza, focus on verifying the service history to complement the clean MOT record. Since the MOT history shows no recorded defects, you should still check for any evidence of recent maintenance that might not be reflected in the MOT database.

Given the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the condition of the brake discs, windscreen wipers, and suspension arms, as these are the most common failure points for this model across the wider fleet. Ensure the blue paintwork is free from significant stone chips, which can be common on vehicles covering higher annual mileages.

The 1.0L petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it economical for daily commuting. Fuel economy for this engine size is typically efficient for a small hatchback.

Maintenance costs should be relatively predictable, though you should budget for wear-and-tear items like brake discs and wipers, which are noted as common failure points for the Ibiza model. Total annual running costs are estimated based on typical usage for this vehicle class.

Direct your inspection towards the braking system and suspension components. Although this specific vehicle has had no MOT failures to date, the wider SEAT Ibiza data indicates that brake discs and suspension arms are frequent reasons for failure.

Additionally, check the condition of the windscreen wipers and the overall clarity of the windscreen. Even though no defects were noted in the 2026 MOT, these are common maintenance items that can lead to failures in this model type.

This 2021 SEAT Ibiza (DA70UBS) has covered 48,581 miles since its first registration in January 2021. The vehicle's MOT history is notable for having no recorded defects across three consecutive tests in 2024, 2025, and 2026. While the mileage is higher than the model average of 6,774 miles per year, the consistent pass rate suggests a consistent level of compliance with MOT standards.

Aggregate data for the SEAT Ibiza shows a 77.5% average MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to brakes, wipers, and suspension.
