2018 SEAT Ateca 1.6L Diesel · DF67 ODM

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile, following a clean pass in its most recent MOT on 19 May 2026 at 78,075 miles. This represents a significant improvement over the state recorded in April 2023, where the car failed on multiple fronts. The three consecutive passes with no recorded defects indicate that the current owner has addressed the previous mechanical shortcomings and is now maintaining a consistent standard of upkeep. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,760 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the car covered 7,967 miles, while the interval between April 2025 and May 2026 saw 6,425 miles. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not been left to sit idle for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the condition of seals, bushings, and braking components. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking and tyre history established during the 2023 failure at 56,640 miles. The tester flagged exposed cords on the front tyre and thin pads all around, alongside pitted and scored front discs. While these were rectified to pass subsequent tests, a physical inspection should verify the current thickness of the pads and check the discs for signs of uneven wear or heat cracking. The 2023 failure also noted ineffective wipers suggests that minor consumables were previously neglected, so checking the state of the wiper blades and the glass surface is necessary.
