2017 SEAT Alhambra 2.0L Diesel · JE03 KLE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy based on the most recent MOT outcome. A clean test was recorded on 17 October 2025 with no advisories or defects, marking a marked contrast to earlier results and indicating an improving trend in the recorded maintenance pattern. The two preceding tests, in September 2024 and October 2025, passed without advisories, suggesting that the items previously flagged were addressed. Annual mileage appears broadly consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Roughly 11,500 miles per year is recorded, which is neither unusually low nor excessive. The gap between the September 2023 failure and retest on the same day shows the owner rectified the dangerous defect immediately, while the steady annual progression implies regular driving rather than long periods off the road. The transition from a clean October 2022 test to the September 2023 failure represents the principal anomaly in the mileage progression, with the vehicle covering typical annual mileage in the intervening period. A prospective buyer should examine several components in person. The front brake pads were recorded as dangerously thin at the September 2023 test, less than 1.5 mm thick, which is a serious finding even though it was remedied the same day. The rear brake discs were noted as pitted on both nearside and offside in 2023, and while classed as not seriously weakened, replacement may now be due given typical wear rates. Front tyres were flagged on three consecutive tests from 2022 through 2023 for worn edges and close-to-legal-limit tread, suggesting possible tracking misalignment or suspension geometry wear that warrants a current inspection. A physical check of the underbody for corrosion, steering and suspension bushes, and exhaust integrity is sensible given the vehicle's age and mileage. Considering the recorded evidence, the failure was resolved promptly and the two most recent tests are entirely clean, which tempers concern. Nevertheless, the brake and tyre history indicates that consumable wear should remain a focus for any inspection. The buying score is 62 and risk level is Medium, reflecting a mostly reassuring but not unblemished record.
