2021 Cupra Ateca Comfrt AND SND TSI 4D SA 2.0L Petrol · LS70 XET

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a history of passes across its last three inspections. The most recent test in January 2026 at 41,609 miles passed with only minor cosmetic defects, specifically a windscreen stone chip and a slightly defective nearside front headlamp lens. These issues do not indicate mechanical failure or structural concerns, suggesting the core safety-critical components remain within acceptable DVSA parameters. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical light-duty use, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year over its five-year life. A gap of 11,411 miles occurred between the January 2024 test at 26,105 miles and the February 2025 test at 37,516 miles, followed by another 4,093 miles prior to the January 2026 inspection. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally benefits the drivetrain and suspension components compared to low-mileage vehicles. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyre condition, as the February 2025 test flagged cuts on both the nearside front and offside rear tyres. While these did not reach the cords at the time, they indicate a history of curb or road impact that warrants monitoring. The nearside front headlamp lens also requires a check to ensure the defect has not progressed into moisture ingress or beam failure. Given the lack of advisories regarding brake binding, suspension bushes, or structural corrosion, the vehicle appears well-maintained for its age and mileage.
