2021 SEAT Leon SE Dynamic TSI EVO 1.0L Petrol · FD21 WVL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 June 2026 with 88,458 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the single failure in 2025 was rectified immediately with a subsequent clean pass. The lack of defects in the latest inspection suggests that the primary mechanical and safety-critical components currently operate within acceptable tolerances for DVSA standards. The mileage profile indicates high usage for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,700 miles per year. Between the June 2024 test at 70,407 miles and the May 2025 test at 82,191 miles, the car covered over 12,000 miles in just eleven months. This consistent accumulation of mileage suggests regular motorway or commercial use, which typically prevents components from seizing due to inactivity, but also places accelerated wear on the suspension bushings, brake assemblies, and drivetrain components. The failure on 16 May 2025 at 82,189 miles for an offside front inner tyre tread depth below the legal 1.6mm limit is a consumable issue, yet high mileage often masks underlying alignment problems or uneven tyre wear. A buyer should inspect the remaining tyres for irregular wear patterns that might indicate faulty geometry or worn ball joints. Given the high mileage, a physical inspection of the brake discs for thinning or scoring and a check of the coil springs for fatigue is necessary to ensure the high-frequency use has not prematurely degraded the suspension..
