AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 SEAT IBIZA demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent MOT on 2025-05-06 confirming no defects at 84,248 miles. However, a prior failure on 2024-05-20 at the same mileage raises questions about unresolved issues, though no specific faults were recorded. The absence of recurring defects in subsequent tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards, but the 2024 failure warrants scrutiny to confirm corrective actions were completed. The vehicle’s mileage of 84,248 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 8,425 miles, consistent with its 10-year age. MOT tests are spaced approximately 12 months apart, with no significant gaps or rapid mileage surges. The 2023-07-21 test at 76,763 miles and 2022-07-27 test at 71,606 miles show a steady progression, though the 2024-05-20 entry’s dual status as both PASSED and FAILED introduces ambiguity. This inconsistency may indicate a data entry error, but the latest pass confirms compliance. A buyer should inspect the suspension, brakes, and exhaust system, as these components are common sources of recurring faults in vehicles of this age. The 2024 failure, though unspecified, could relate to minor issues like corrosion or alignment, which may have been resolved. No structural integrity concerns are noted in the records, but a physical inspection is recommended to verify the condition of brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust emissions, ensuring no latent issues persist.
