2016 SEAT Leon 2.0L Diesel · DC65 FOJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a remarkably clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 17 June 2025 at 104,111 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and environmental standards. This reflects a stable maintenance trend over several years, as the vehicle has avoided any failures or advisories across the last five recorded tests. The mileage accumulation is highly consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per annum. Data shows a notable increase in usage between January 2023 at 85,196 miles and June 2024 at 100,881 miles, where the car covered over 15,000 miles in just sixteen months. However, the usage returned to a more standard rate leading into the 2025 five-year test. This pattern suggests regular road use, which often helps to prevent the seal degradation and component seizing associated with long periods of vehicle standing. Because the record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brake components, or structural corrosion, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on standard consumable wear that the MOT does not cover. Check the condition of the tyre treads and the thickness of the brake pads for uneven wear. Given the 100,000-mile milestone, verify there are no signs fluid leaks and check for play in the control arm bushings. The absence of previous rust warnings suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but a visual check of the underbody sills is still standard practice for a vehicle of this age.
