2019 SEAT Ibiza 1.0L Petrol · LR69 UGK

The vehicle presents as mechanically roadworthy but with a concerning trend in brake component degradation. The most recent test on 2025-08-25 at 73,395 miles resulted in a pass, albeit with advisories regarding rear brake pad wear and pitted rear brake discs. A failure just one day earlier on 2025-08-24 at 73,342 miles revealed significantly worn front brake discs and pads below legal thresholds, indicating a rapid deterioration in brake condition over a short period. This suggests either insufficient maintenance or a failure to address previously identified issues. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,485 miles annually. The record shows consistent annual testing with no major gaps, though there is a notable spike in mileage between tests, particularly from 2022-08-18 (39,700 miles) to 2023-08-25 (47,994 miles), representing a 8,294-mile increase over twelve months. This could indicate either increased usage or a period of irregular maintenance intervals. Brake system concerns dominate the history, with front brake components failing twice within a 12-month window. The repeated warnings regarding brake pad thickness and disc condition point to a systemic issue requiring immediate attention. Tyre wear also appears inconsistent, with multiple instances of edges worn close to legal limits, suggesting possible alignment or suspension misalignment. The windscreen damage noted in 2022 remains unresolved and may impact visibility. Buyers should prioritise inspection of the front brake assemblies, particularly discs and pads, which have shown progressive wear. Suspension components should be checked for excessive play or worn bushes, given the tyre wear patterns. Structural integrity should be verified, especially around the windscreen mounting points where damage has been recorded. Any signs of corrosion or rust in wheel arches or underbody areas would warrant further investigation.
