AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The SEAT Leon currently holds a failed MOT status from the 22 October 2025 test at 190,824 miles, with no defects recorded on the DVSA extract. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly on 9 November 2024 at 186,238 miles after a failed attempt on 31 October 2024 at 186,158 miles, also with no listed defects. The record shows a stable but now interrupted roadworthiness trend, with the most recent failure leaving the car legally unroadworthy until the cause is documented and cleared. The odometer reads 190,824 miles against a 21-year life, equating to roughly 9,087 miles per year, which is typical for the age. Annual increments are consistent: 177,259 miles in November 2022, 182,206 in November 2023, and 186,238 by November 2024, showing steady private or light commercial use rather than standing periods. The jump to 190,824 by October 2025 adds only 4,586 miles, suggesting reduced running in the final year before the failed test. The supplied history records no advisories or defects across any entry, so no recurring suspension bushes, brake disc wear, corrosion, or exhaust emission faults are evidenced. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, coil springs, and binding calipers, as the 2025 failure with zero recorded defects implies either an administrative omission or a fault outside the standard dataset. Given the mileage, consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades warrant verification despite the clean MOT trail.
