2015 SEAT Ibiza 1.2L Petrol · KT64 AXD

The 2015 SEAT Ibiza has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded across five consecutive tests, most recently passing on 11 November 2024 at 108,536 miles. This suggests the vehicle has been consistently roadworthy under DVSA standards, with no recurring advisories or major failings to indicate worsening mechanical issues. The most recent test was conducted just under nine months ago, which is within the acceptable window for a vehicle of this age and mileage, though it does not account for any potential wear or failures that may have arisen since then. The absence of advisories or defects in any of the tests implies that previous owners—or a dealer—have likely addressed basic maintenance proactively, though this does not guarantee current condition. The recorded mileage of 108,536 miles over 11 years reflects an average of approximately 9,867 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps in mileage accumulation between tests, with the largest jump of around 7,488 miles occurring between the 2021 and 2022 tests, which still aligns with steady usage rather than neglect or prolonged storage. The consistency in mileage suggests the vehicle has not been left unused for extended periods, which could otherwise lead to accelerated wear of components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or fuel system components. However, the lack of advisories in any test does not preclude the need for a thorough inspection of high-wear items such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension components, as these are not always flagged in MOTs unless they reach critical thresholds. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the suspension system, particularly the condition of the rear coil springs and bushes, which are prone to fatigue over 100,000 miles. The brakes, while not failed in any test, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the MOT only tests for minimum tread depth and overall functionality. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe is also worth examining, as this is a common issue for vehicles of this age and can compromise structural integrity if left unaddressed. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, as this is often overlooked until it becomes a fail item. The absence of advisories in past tests does not mean these areas are free from wear—only that they have not yet reached MOT failure criteria.
