2011 SEAT Exeo 2.0L Diesel · FG61 EAW

The SEAT Exeo presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 31 October 2025 at 194,133 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the last two annual cycles. The tester recorded no defects at that test. This follows a failed attempt two days earlier on 29 October 2025 at 194,121 miles where no specific defect was logged, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A prior pass on 24 October 2024 at 168,307 miles also showed a clean sheet, though it too was preceded by a failed entry the same day with no defects noted. At roughly 15 years old the car carries 194,133 miles, equating to about 12,942 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained motorway or commuter use rather than light local running. The odometer climbed 25,826 miles between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests, a typical yearly spread that confirms consistent use. The record is sparse, with only four entries and no advisories or listed faults across either year, so the history gives little insight into wear on consumables or hidden corrosion. Given the absence of recorded advisories, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as these components commonly degrade on high-mileage vehicles of this era without triggering MOT flags. The twin fail-pass pairs on both annual visits with no defects suggest the previous owner may have mishandled test bookings or presentation, but they do not imply skipped mechanical upkeep. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions showed no concerns in the official data. The clean record at 194,133 miles means the Exeo is legally fit to run, yet the high total distance warrants scrutiny of drivetrain condition and any underlying rust before purchase.
