2009 SEAT Ibiza SE 1.4L Petrol · FE59 WGG

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 91,375 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This clean sheet suggests that the previous owners have been proactive with maintenance, as the car has consistently avoided the mechanical or structural failures typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2009 registration, averaging only approximately 5,375 miles per year. Between October 2022 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 15,556 miles, indicating consistent but light usage. There is a significant gap of nearly 5,000 miles between October 2021 and October 2022, which suggests a period of very low use or secondary vehicle status. This low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts that remain stationary. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a buyer must still inspect for specific issues associated with low-mileage older cars. Attention should be paid to the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake hoses, which can perish or crack over time regardless of distance driven. Because the car is 17 years old, a physical check for structural corrosion on the sills and floor pans is essential, as MOT testing only identifies rust once it reaches a structural threshold. The lack of advisories in recent records is encouraging, but checking for minor oil leaks or fluid degradation remains necessary to ensure the low-mileage status reflects genuine mechanical health.
