2007 SEAT Ibiza 1.2L Petrol · GP57 VMC

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 4 October 2025 at 85,712 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness, though the identical‑date failure on the same day indicates previous minor faults that were corrected before the pass. The mileage rose from 80,173 miles on 9 September 2023 to 85,712 miles on 4 October 2025, a gain of roughly 2,500 miles per year, which aligns with the low annual mileage figure and shows periods of limited use rather than rapid accumulation. The two failures on 9 September 2023 and 4 October 2025, despite subsequent passes with no defects, suggest intermittent issues such as worn suspension bushes, binding rear brake calipers, or recurring structural rust that may re‑emerge; a buyer should therefore inspect the suspension components, coil springs, brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and examine the chassis for corrosion. Additional in‑person checks should include tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emission levels, and verification that any earlier advisories were fully remedied before purchase.
