2014 SEAT Toledo 1.2L Petrol · FE14 VLW

The most recent MOT test on July 31st, 2025, resulted in a failure due to issues with the nearside rear shock absorbers and worn suspension arm pins or bushes on both the front and rear suspension. The trend in the MOT history shows a deterioration in the vehicle's condition between the 2024 and 2025 tests, as the 2025 failure identified significant suspension wear that was not present in the previous successful inspection. The mileage of 109,656 miles for a 2014 model is consistent with the expected annual mileage, suggesting a level of wear that is typical for the vehicle's age. This mileage indicates regular use, which supports the findings of wear on suspension components. The main risk pattern is related to the suspension system, specifically the shock absorbers and various suspension arm pins or bushes. The buyer should immediately inspect the suspension components in person, paying close attention to the nearside rear shock absorbers and the front and rear suspension arm pins and bushes for signs of excessive wear or damage. Also, check the condition of the rear tyres as they were noted as being worn close to the legal limit in a previous inspection.
