2019 SEAT Leon 1.5L Petrol · DF19 XSH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass in August 2025 at 49,725 miles. The maintenance trend shows a reactive rather than proactive approach, as evidenced by a failure just three miles prior during the same session. The tester failed the car due to a thin offside front brake pad and a missing wheel fixing on the nearside rear. These issues were addressed immediately to secure the subsequent pass, suggesting the owner performs repairs only when prompted by regulatory failure. At 49,725 miles over seven years, the Leon has averaged approximately 7,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a domestic vehicle. The mileage accumulation is consistent, with intervals of roughly 5,000 to 6,000 miles between the annual tests from 2022 to 2025. This steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stationary neglect, though it does mean rubber components and fluids are subject to standard age-related degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking and suspension systems due to recurring flags in these areas. The 2023 test at 38,684 miles noted worn and pitted rear discs alongside thin pads, followed by the 2025 failure on the front side pads. Furthermore, the 2024 advisory highlighted oil misting on the nearside front shock absorber. While the misting was not an immediate failure, it indicates a beginning seal leak that may require replacement soon. Verify that all wheel fixings are secure to ensure the previous failure was properly rectified.
