2012 SEAT Exeo SE TDI CR 2.0L Diesel · ND61 FFK

The vehicle's MOT history shows an improving trend in terms of test outcomes. The most recent test on 16 October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pass on 9 October 2024, which succeeded after a failure on 1 October 2024. The record shows a pattern of intermittent failures in 2023 and 2024, but the most recent two annual cycles have concluded without any flagged advisories or defects. The recorded mileage of 163,416 miles is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 11,673 miles per year. The MOT data provides a consistent annual testing pattern from September 2023 through October 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline that would suggest long periods of non-use or irregular road use. The 2023 and 2024 failures do not specify the exact mechanical nature of the defects in this summary, which prevents a precise diagnosis of recurring issues. However, the presence of failures in consecutive years suggests that specific components required attention to meet minimum standards. A physical inspection should focus on checking the current state of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components to ensure the recent clean passes reflect actual mechanical stability rather than just the absence of recorded defects. A buyer should also examine the vehicle for signs of underside corrosion or exhaust system degradation, as these are common issues on vehicles of this age and mileage. While the recent records are clean, the history of failures indicates that components requiring replacement were necessary to maintain roadworthiness in the past. Checking the integrity of the braking system and checking for binding calipers would be prudent during a pre-purchase inspection.
