2023 SEAT Tarraco SE Technology Ecotsi 1.5L Petrol · JA52 HBA

The 2026‑03‑16 MOT at 20,186 miles confirms roadworthiness, with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend that has improved since the earlier failure at 20,109 miles on 2026‑03‑13. At three years of age, the recorded 20,186 miles equate to an average annual mileage of 6,729 miles, which aligns with typical usage for a 2023 SEAT Tarraco. The two tests were conducted only three days apart, suggesting regular testing rather than extended periods of inactivity, and no significant mileage gaps are evident in the documented history. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, examining rear and front suspension bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers for wear or binding, and verify that the brake discs and calipers show no signs of corrosion or uneven wear. Structural integrity should be assessed for rust on the chassis, wheel arches and underbody panels, while the exhaust system must be inspected for cracks or excessive corrosion that could affect emissions. Although the MOT record lists no defects, these components are prone to gradual deterioration and merit close visual and functional checks. The clean MOT outcome and consistent mileage pattern suggest responsible ownership, yet a thorough in‑person inspection remains essential to confirm the condition of wear items such as tyres, wiper blades and fluid levels, and to ensure that no latent issues have developed since the last test.
