2017 SEAT Ibiza 1.2L Petrol · GJ17 RHO

The 2026-05-05 MOT at 51,409 miles passed with no defects, confirming the SEAT IBIZA is presently roadworthy and the maintenance record shows improvement after the 2025-04-02 failure was corrected. The previous 2025-04-02 test recorded the same mileage but listed binding rear brakes and excessive wear of the offside front suspension arm pin or bush, which were addressed before the final pass. Mileage accumulation has been modest until 2023, when usage rose from 23,857 miles in March to 34,209 miles by April 2024, a jump of over 10,000 miles in one year, and continued at roughly 7,500 miles annually through 2025, suggesting increased seasonal or regular use despite the vehicle’s low average annual mileage of 5,712 miles. A buyer should therefore examine the offside front suspension arm for worn pin or bush, verify that the brake discs show no deep scoring or cracking beyond the 1.1.14 (a) (ii) wear limit, and inspect the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust that could compromise integrity. Overall, the recent clean MOT and resolved faults indicate the car has been maintained adequately, but the buyer must confirm that the suspension and brake repairs were executed to manufacturer standards before final acceptance.
