2020 SEAT Leon First Edition Etsi EVO SA 1.5L Hybrid electric · MK70 HFF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend regarding reactive consumable management. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 52,583 miles passed, the tester flagged both front tyres as being at the legal limit of 1.6mm. This follows an advisory from October 2024 at 41,118 miles regarding a nearside rear tyre also being near the limit. The recurring nature of these issues suggests a consistent pattern of neglecting tyre replacements until they reach failure points, rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per annum. There is a steady progression of roughly 11,000 miles between the October 2024 and November 2025 tests, and another 11,800 miles in the preceding year. The failure in November 2023 at 29,494 miles due to exposed cords on both front tyres is a significant outlier, as it indicated that the tyres were driven well beyond structural failure, posing a genuine safety risk prior to replacement. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension and alignment geometry, as the repeated reports of uneven wear on tyre edges often point to incorrect tracking or worn control arm bushes. Given the history of allowing tyres to fail, the brake discs and pads should be checked for thinning or glazing, as these components often suffer alongside neglected rubberwork. While no structural corrosion or mechanical failures have been noted in the record, the owner's approach indicates that they only address faults when strictly necessary to pass an MOT test.
