2017 SEAT Leon 1.4L Petrol · HT66 AEO

This car presents one of the cleanest MOT records you are likely to find on a nine-year-old vehicle. In the February 2026 test at 105,674 miles, it passed with no defects and no advisories. That clean result continues a perfect five-test run dating back to February 2022. The maintenance trend is stable and consistent; nothing in the official record suggests any mechanical or structural issue has ever been flagged. The mileage pattern does contain one notable shift. The tester recorded 80,281 miles in February 2022, then a heavy jump to 95,186 miles by February 2023, indicating around 14,905 miles of usage in that single year. After that, annual mileage dropped sharply to roughly 3,775 miles, then 3,393 miles, then 3,320 miles in the most recent three intervals. The car has effectively been used as a low-mileage runabout for the past three years, which fits the overall recorded 11,742 miles per year average across its life. This is typical of a car that may have been a high-mileage daily driver early on, then relegated to lighter duty. Because the MOT record shows no advisories at all, no recurring faults exist to track. That is a strong indication the previous owners attended to the car before each test. However, an MOT pass does not guarantee perfect mechanical condition. At 105,674 miles, you should personally inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for wear, since these often fail silently between tests. Brake discs and calipers deserve attention too; the low recent mileage increases the risk of binding calipers or corroded discs from standing, even though the testers found no issues. Check tyre tread depth and look for uneven wear, which would point to alignment or suspension geometry problems not captured by the MOT pass. The bodywork and underbody sills should also be examined for corrosion, as the clean test history only confirms they were sound at the point of each inspection.
