2010 SEAT Alhambra SE TDI 2.0L Diesel · DFZ 9056

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status following a period of clean testing results. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2026 at 126,113 miles passed without any defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred in February 2025 at 120,269 miles, the subsequent pass just three weeks later suggests the specific issue was identified and rectified promptly rather than representing chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a sixteen-year-old MPV, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per annum. Between February 2023 and March 2026, the vehicle covered 17,318 miles, showing a steady rate of use without long intervals of stationary time or periods of accelerated wear. The gap of 5,865 miles between the February 2024 and February 2025 tests indicates regular annual usage, which is generally beneficial for the health of seals and drivetrain components compared to neglected vehicles. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the latest three tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related degradation that do not always trigger an MOT failure. Prioritize an examination of the suspension bushes and control arms for cracking, as these often perish on older heavy SEAT models regardless of mileage. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or thinning and check the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the state of minor underbody corrosion.
