2017 SEAT Ateca 2.0L Petrol · EX67 EFF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 19 September 2025 at 67,173 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in both 2024 and 2025. This suggests that the previous owner is proactive in addressing faults once they are identified by the tester, rather than allowing mechanical or safety issues to persist over time. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,464 miles per year. Between the September 2023 test at 48,901 miles and the September 2024 test at 58,139 miles, the car covered 9,038 miles. The subsequent interval saw another 8,234 miles leading up to the 2025 test. This regular usage pattern is generally beneficial for vehicle components, as it helps prevent seals and rubber components from drying or seizing which often occurs with long periods of inactivity. While the most recent report is clean, the recurring failures at 58,139 and 67,173 miles indicate that specific components required rectification just prior to passing. A buyer should request the specific reasons for those recorded failures to determine if the issues were related to minor consumable wear items or more significant mechanical failures. Given the age and mileage, a physical inspection should focus on the suspension bushes, coil springs, and the condition of the brake discs and calipers to ensure no new binding or excessive corrosion is developing.
