2013 SEAT Alhambra 2.0L Diesel · KV13 BEJ

The 2013 SEAT Alhambra demonstrates a recent roadworthiness trend that appears stable, with the most recent MOT on 2026-01-16 confirming a pass at 113,055 miles. However, the immediate prior test on 2026-01-14 recorded a failure despite no defects being listed, creating ambiguity about the vehicle’s condition during that period. The absence of recorded faults in subsequent tests suggests potential resolution of issues, but the lack of detailed defect data limits definitive conclusions. Mileage progression aligns with expected usage, averaging approximately 8,697 miles annually over 13 years. The MOT history shows consistent intervals between tests, with no significant gaps or spikes in mileage accumulation. The vehicle’s recorded 113,055 miles at 2026-01-16 reflects a steady usage pattern, avoiding extremes that might indicate prolonged inactivity or excessive wear. This suggests the car has been maintained to a standard that avoids major mechanical strain, though the lack of detailed defect records prevents deeper analysis of component longevity. A buyer should prioritise a hands-on inspection of the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the model’s known susceptibility to wear in these areas. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity issues in the MOT records is reassuring, but the 2026-01-14 failure—despite no listed defects—warrants scrutiny of brake components, exhaust emissions, and electrical systems. A professional assessment is advised to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical soundness, especially to verify the resolution of any unresolved issues from the failed test.
