Our Verdict
A highly recommended purchase. This 2018 SEAT Leon presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with no failures and consistent maintenance patterns.
Given the clean MOT record, your primary focus should be on the service history. Ensure the oil and filter changes have been carried out at regular intervals to protect the 1984cc engine. Check that the brake pads, which were flagged as wearing thin in April 2022, have been replaced, and verify that the tyres mentioned in the 2024 advisory were updated before the most recent test.
Negotiate based on the current state of consumables. While the car has a strong record, checking for a full SEAT service history will add significant value and peace of mind regarding the long-term health of the petrol engine.
The 2.0L petrol engine offers a balance of performance and efficiency, though it will be more expensive to run than the smaller 1.0L or 1.5L Leon variants. You can expect moderate fuel costs and a mid-range insurance group typical for a car of this power output.
Annual costs will include the standard VED road tax for a 2018 petrol vehicle and routine maintenance. Given the car's reliability record, maintenance should be limited to standard consumables like tyres, brakes, and annual servicing.
Start by inspecting the tyres and brake pads. The MOT history shows advisories for worn tyres on the offside front and rear in September 2024, and thin brake pads in April 2022; confirm these have been replaced with quality parts.
Perform a visual check of the black paintwork for any age-related stone chips or scratches. Since there are no mechanical failures listed in the MOT history, focus your test drive on the smoothness of the gear changes and the responsiveness of the 2.0L engine to ensure it has been driven sympathetically.
This black 2.0L petrol SEAT Leon is in excellent condition based on its available data. With 58,362 miles recorded as of September 2025, the vehicle has been used moderately and has passed every MOT test since 2021 without a single failure. The history suggests a well-maintained car with only minor wear-and-tear advisories.
While aggregate data is unavailable, this specific vehicle's history of six consecutive MOT passes without failure suggests high individual reliability.
