2009 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · NG09 SJV

The 2009 SEAT Ibiza presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 February 2026 at 84,560 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 31 January 2025 at 80,389 miles also showed a clean sheet. The two failed entries on 13 December 2023 and 31 January 2025 carry no recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentation failures rather than mechanical faults. The vehicle shows no escalating advisories or recurring wear items across the available record. Recorded mileage sits at 84,560 against an age of roughly seventeen years, equating to about 4,974 miles per year. The test on 13 December 2023 logged 76,429 miles, rising to 80,389 by 31 January 2025 and 84,560 by February 2026. This reflects low annual use with no rapid accumulation and a fourteen-month gap between the late-2023 and early-2025 tests. Sparse but clean history gives little evidence of neglected consumables, though standing periods implied by low mileage can conceal perished rubber components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and intermittent use. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity advisories in the record is reassuring, yet long stationary spells risk seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres unseen by the tester. Verify the exhaust emissions and underbody for hidden rust at the next service. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic test compliance, with no flagged tyre tread or wiper blade failures across the timeline. The clean MOT run suggests the Ibiza was not driven hard, but the unexplained fails without defects warrant confirmation the logbook matches the DVSA entries before purchase.
