Our Verdict
A strong contender for those seeking a c
Focus your attention on the service history to confirm when the front brake pads were replaced, as they were flagged as wearing thin in both May 2024 and May 2025. Given the 74,469-mile odometer reading, verify that oil changes and filter replacements have been carried out at the recommended intervals for the 1.0L engine.
Check that all documentation corresponds with the June 2018 first registration date. When negotiating, you may wish to reference the above-average mileage compared to the model aggregate data to ensure the price reflects the vehicle's usage.
The 999cc engine is designed for urban efficiency, which typically translates to lower road tax and a competitive insurance group for small petrol cars. Routine maintenance for this engine size is generally straightforward and cost-effective.
Annual costs will be driven primarily by fuel and insurance. Based on the engine specification and vehicle age, typical maintenance will involve periodic replacement of consumables such as tyres and brake pads.
Inspect the front braking system to ensure the pads and discs were refreshed following the advisories seen in 2024 and 2025. Although the 2026 test was clean, it is important to verify the quality of the parts used.
Referencing aggregate data from 223,522 Ibizas, suspension arms are a frequent failure point; check for any unusual knocks or play when turning the wheel. Additionally, inspect the tyres and windscreen wipers, as these are listed among the top MOT failure reasons for this model.
This white 2018 SEAT Ibiza with a 999cc petrol engine has recorded 74,469 miles. It has passed all five of its MOT tests since 2022, with the most recent test in February 2026 returning no defects. While it has covered more distance than the average Ibiza of this age, the consistency of its test results is a positive data point.
The SEAT Ibiza has an average MOT pass rate of 77.4%, with suspension arms, tyres, and wipers being the most common points of failure.
