2020 SEAT Ateca 1.5L Petrol · KN70 ACV

This SEAT Ateca is currently roadworthy and maintains a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 22 July 2026 at 49,122 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This represents an improvement over previous years where minor consumable wear was consistently flagged. The vehicle has covered 49,122 miles over six years, averaging roughly 8,187 miles per year. This is a typical usage pattern for this age of car. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent, increasing by 5,782 miles between July 2025 and July 2026, and 8,281 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in usage that would suggest commercial use or prolonged periods of standing. Previous records indicate a pattern of neglecting tyres and brakes until the point of MOT inspection. In August 2023 at 25,316 miles, the tester flagged both front tyres as worn close to the legal limit. A year later, in July 2024 at 35,039 miles, the nearside rear brake pads were noted as wearing thin. By July 2025 at 43,320 miles, both rear tyres showed signs of cracking or perishing. These recurring advisories suggest the previous owner performed reactive rather than preventative maintenance on consumables. A buyer should verify the current age and brand of all four tyres to ensure they were replaced following the 2025 advisory. While the latest test is clean, the history of uneven tyre wear and thin brake pads suggests a need to check the alignment and the remaining thickness of the brake discs. No structural corrosion or suspension failures have been recorded, which indicates the chassis and mechanical integrity remain sound.
