2018 SEAT Leon 1.5L Petrol · FG68 EKM

The 2018 SEAT Leon presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 January 2026 at 30,446 miles recorded no defects, continuing an unbroken pass sequence across every available MOT entry. No advisories or mechanical faults appear in the history, indicating the vehicle has met DVSA standards without intervention at each examination. Annual mileage sits well below typical norms for an eight-year-old car. The record shows 23,824 miles at the October 2022 test, rising to 26,563 by February 2023, 27,817 in January 2024, 29,315 in January 2025, and 30,446 in January 2026. That equates to roughly 3,800 miles per year. The gap between the October 2022 and February 2023 tests reflects a changed test scheduling date rather than a mileage spike; accumulation has been slow and linear throughout. Low use of this nature suggests prolonged standing periods, though the clean test record gives no evidence of resultant deterioration. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-mileage vehicles left idle can develop perished rubber components or seized handbrake mechanisms not captured in a pass result. Examine underside structural integrity for corrosion, particularly around subframes and sills, since moisture exposure during storage accelerates rust where paint protection fails. Check tyre sidewalls for cracking from age rather than wear, and verify brake disc condition for surface pitting after disuse. The MOT history shows no recurring faults to track, but the absence of advisories on a low-use car does not exempt the buyer from confirming fluid intervals and cambelt status against SEAT service schedules.
