2016 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · JB15 JCK

The 2016 SEAT Ibiza presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 February 2026 at 91,474 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 27 March 2025 at 82,620 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across its history, and the current condition reflects consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. Recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old car, averaging roughly 9,147 miles per year. The DVSA data shows 68,411 miles logged on 27 April 2024, rising to 82,620 miles by March 2025 and 91,474 miles by February 2026. This equates to around 13,000 to 14,000 miles annually over the last two years, a moderate increase over the lifetime average but not extreme. The sparse record shows only two failed tests, both on 26 March 2025 and 27 April 2024, each immediately followed by a pass on the next day at near-identical mileage with no defects listed, suggesting administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical failure. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the age and mileage, as these components accrue wear invisible to a clean MOT sheet. The absence of advisories across all tests means no corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches or structural integrity concerns were flagged by testers. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic pass standard without deferred consumable neglect showing in the record. Given the repeated same-day fail-and-pass pattern with no defects cited, verify the V5C and test certificates to confirm the entries are genuine rather than clerical anomalies. Otherwise the Ibiza stands as a low-risk used purchase on the evidence of its MOT trail.
