2018 SEAT Ibiza 1.0L Petrol · FS02 AMY

The 2018 SEAT Ibiza presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on recent testing data. The most recent inspection conducted in June 2025 at 50,025 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates an improvement over the July 2024 test, where the vehicle initially failed at 43,738 miles. The fact that the vehicle cleared all faults for the subsequent test suggests that the previous owner addressed the specific mechanical or safety issues identified by the tester during that failure. The vehicle has followed a relatively consistent usage pattern, averaging approximately 6,250 miles per annum. This is well below the national average for an eight-year-old car, suggesting lower-than-average wear on major components like the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake assembly. Between the 2022 test at 29,071 miles and the 2023 test at 36,974 miles, the car covered nearly 8,000 miles, maintaining a steady rate of operation that avoids the risks of high-mileage stress. While the failure in 2024 requires a review of the specific repair invoices to confirm what was rectified, the clean 2025 certificate shows the car is currently in a compliant state. A buyer should still inspect for physical signs of corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as low-mileage cars can sometimes hide degradation from long sitting periods. The record does not show a trend of recurring neglect or escalating mechanical failure, pointing toward a vehicle that has been maintained to basic operational standards.
