2021 Cupra Formentor V2 TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · LT71 KFD

The CUPRA Formentor presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend. The most recent MOT, conducted on 18 August 2025 at 60,751 miles, passed cleanly with zero defects recorded. This follows an equally clean pass on 16 August 2024 at 43,279 miles. A consecutive two-year run of flawless MOT outcomes strongly suggests the vehicle has been kept in sound mechanical order, with no emerging or recurring faults flagged by the tester. The mileage accumulation is notably high for a five-year-old vehicle. Between the August 2024 test and the August 2025 test, the car covered 17,472 miles in a single year, averaging roughly 1,456 miles per month. This is significantly above the typical annual average of 12,150 miles calculated over its five-year lifespan. Such intensive daily use accelerates wear on consumable components, particularly brake discs and pads, tyres, and suspension bushes, even if those parts have not yet reached a failure threshold. Despite the heavy mileage, the absence of any advisories or failures is a positive indicator. High-mileage vehicles frequently present with binding calipers, worn coil springs, or deteriorating exhaust emissions components, yet none of these issues appeared in either the 2024 or 2025 assessments. The clean record implies the previous owner addressed wear proactively rather than deferring replacements. A buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on the areas most stressed by sustained high-mileage use. Check the inner edges of the tyres for uneven wear, inspect the brake disc thickness and pad condition, and examine the front and rear suspension bushes for play or cracking. Given the vehicle's age, also assess the underbody and sill areas for early signs of corrosion, particularly around mounting points and drain holes. The MOT record confirms current compliance, but the mileage demands a careful hands-on evaluation of these high-wear mechanical and structural components.
