2009 SEAT Exeo 2.0L Diesel · KV09 RKA

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 30 September 2025, which remains active until 29 September 2026. While the recent test results appear clean, the record shows a recurring pattern of initial failure followed by an immediate pass on the same day in both 2024 and 2025. This sequence suggests that minor defects were rectified on-site during the testing process, indicating that the vehicle required last-minute intervention to meet minimum legal standards for road use. At 120,820 miles over 17 years, the vehicle has covered an average of approximately 7,107 miles per annum. This rate of use is consistent with typical UK driving patterns and does not suggest prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive high-mileage strain. The MOT history provided is limited to the last three years, which offers a narrow window into the vehicle's long-term mechanical health. Without data prior to 2023, there is no evidence to evaluate the history of major component replacement or long-term structural integrity. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking systems, as these components often account for the types of minor failures that require immediate rectification during an MOT. Check the condition of all rubber bushes, ball joints, and coil springs for signs of fatigue or perished material, as these are common failure points for a vehicle of this age. Given the lack of historical advisories, ensure that the brake discs and pads show even wear and that there is no evidence of binding calipers or heavy corrosion on the brake lines, which may have been overlooked in recent, brief inspections. Buying score: 55. Risk level: Medium.
