2016 SEAT Ateca 1.4L Petrol · HF66 XDA

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent MOT on 22 July 2025 at 72,592 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently cleared the test following initial failures. While the record shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, the immediate passes on subsequent tests indicate that the previous owner addressed identified defects promptly to maintain legal road use. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-annual usage, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between the June 2023 test at 59,620 miles and the July 2024 test at 66,733 miles, the vehicle covered 7,113 miles. The subsequent interval between July 2024 and July 2025 saw 5,859 miles recorded. This steady, low-rate accumulation suggests that wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings remains minimal compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. The lack of recorded advisories across the history suggests that the vehicle has not suffered from chronic structural corrosion or persistent mechanical issues like binding calipers. However, the failures recorded at 66,733 and 72,458 miles indicate that specific components required attention shortly before those tests. A buyer should still verify the current condition of the brake discs and suspension during a physical inspection to ensure no new degradation has occurred since the last July test. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for signs of rubber degradation in bushings is prudent, as low mileage can sometimes mask periods of stationary use.
