2013 SEAT MII 1.0L Petrol · E19 SCP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy. The most recent MOT, completed on 2025-07-08 at 82,593 miles, resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. That makes five consecutive clean passes stretching back to 2021-11-09. The maintenance trend is stable. No component has failed an inspection, and no advisory has been raised across the entire recorded history. The mileage pattern is consistent with a lightly used urban car. The recorded 82,593 miles over roughly 13 years works out to about 6,353 miles per year. More telling is the recent slowdown. Between the 2021-11-09 test at 70,180 miles and the 2022-11-28 test at 73,286 miles, the car covered just over 3,100 miles. Each subsequent annual gap has stayed around 3,000 miles. That is well below the lifetime average, which suggests short-trip use or periods of standing rather than heavy motorway commuting. With no failures or advisories on record, no specific recurring problem areas stand out. Do not let that lull you into skipping a hands-on inspection. The absence of structural corrosion advisories is encouraging, but a 2013 city car of this age still deserves a check for underbody rust, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points. Brake discs and pads are consumables that may have been replaced between tests without featuring in the official record. Ask the vendor for receipts showing brake and tyre replacements. Binding calipers and worn suspension bushes often go unrecorded until they become an MOT failure, so take the car on a road test that includes hard braking and listening for creaks from the front suspension. The overall picture is clean. This car has been presented for testing regularly and has passed every time on the first attempt.
