2025 Cupra Formentor V1 Phev S-A Hybrid electric (clean) · DF75 LCP

The DVSA database contains no recorded MOT test for this 2025 CUPRA FORMENTOR V1 PHEV S‑A, so a trend analysis cannot be established; there is no evidence of either a stable, deteriorating or improving maintenance pattern from official testing. In the absence of any MOT entries the vehicle’s roadworthiness must be judged on the basis of a physical inspection and the owner’s service records rather than on statutory test outcomes. Mileage for the vehicle has not been supplied, which precludes any comparison of kilometres travelled against its one‑year age. If the odometer reads a low figure, the car is likely to have been used primarily for short urban journeys, which can lead to accelerated brake disc corrosion and under‑utilisation of the high‑voltage battery. Conversely, a high reading would indicate rapid kilometre accumulation and could suggest early wear on the suspension bushings, tyre tread and the dual‑clutch transmission, as well as a higher probability of oil and coolant degradation. Without a concrete figure the buyer should request a full service history and, if possible, a diagnostic read‑out of the battery state of health to establish the true usage level. Given the vehicle is effectively new, the principal areas to verify are those that deteriorate with time rather than mileage. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or any signs of age‑related perishing, as tyres older than three years can become unsafe even if tread depth is acceptable. Examine the 12 V auxiliary battery and the high‑voltage traction battery for corrosion at terminals, coolant leaks around the battery pack, and ensure the vehicle’s battery management system has logged recent balancing cycles; a diagnostic scan should confirm that the State of Health is above the manufacturer’s 80 % threshold. Check the brake discs and pads for surface rust, especially if the car has been stored for extended periods, and verify that the calipers move freely without binding or uneven pad wear, which can manifest as a pulsating pedal or shudder during braking. Finally, confirm that all scheduled fluid services have been performed in line with the manufacturer’s calendar intervals – engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and the hybrid coolant should be fresh and free of contaminants. Look for any signs of oil or coolant leaks around the front and rear sub‑frames, and ensure the suspension components – coil springs, control arm bushes and anti‑roll bar links – are free of corrosion and excessive play. A thorough test‑drive should be used to listen for any abnormal clunks from the suspension, monitor the electric motor’s assist response, and verify smooth gear changes in the dual‑clutch gearbox. If all these checks are satisfactory and the service book is up‑to‑date, the car should be mechanically sound for a buyer seeking a virtually new PHEV.
