2021 SEAT Ibiza 1.0L Petrol · LF21 HTV

A consistent record of clean MOT results across the three most recent annual tests, culminating in a pass on 19 February 2026, shows no defects have been logged for this 2021 SEAT Ibiza, suggesting that none of the inspected safety‑critical systems have triggered a failure or advisory during the period covered. With 22 631 mi recorded on a vehicle that is just over five years old, the average annual accumulation works out at roughly 4 500 mi per year, well below the typical UK usage pattern for a small hatchback. The low mileage points to relatively light duty, which generally reduces cumulative wear on consumables such as brake pads, clutch components and tyre tread, but it also means that some parts may not have been exercised regularly enough to reveal latent deterioration; a visual inspection for any signs of drying seals or surface corrosion is therefore prudent. Even though the MOT history contains no specific advisories, a buyer should still verify the condition of items that are not always captured by the test. Examine tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity for uneven wear that could hint at misalignment or worn suspension bushes; press the brake pedal at idle for a firm, consistent feel and listen for any squeal or pulsation that might indicate worn pads or warped discs; check the steering wheel for pull or vibration when the vehicle is travelling straight, which can reveal worn tie‑rod ends or degraded rack bushings; and look around the wheel arches and under the chassis for any fresh rust, oil stains or coolant leaks that would not have been flagged in the MOT. During a short test drive, pay attention to any clunking or knocking over bumps, which may betray deteriorating suspension components, and note whether the vehicle tracks straight without the need for corrective steering input. A thorough pre‑purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic, focusing on the brakes, suspension, steering linkages and any visible corrosion, will complement the clean MOT record and give a realistic picture of the car’s current mechanical state.
