Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to a significan
Your primary focus should be on the recent spike in mileage. The vehicle has covered approximately 40,629 miles between May 2025 and May 2026, which is exceptionally high for a single year. You should ask the seller for evidence of recent servicing to ensure this heavy usage hasn't resulted in neglected oil changes or mechanical strain on the 999cc engine.
Negotiate based on the recent MOT failures. The 2026 failure for front tyres being worn on the edges suggests potential alignment issues or simply neglected tyre replacement. Ensure that the headlamp aim issue noted in the May 2026 failure has been professionally rectified and not just adjusted temporarily.
The 999cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it relatively economical for urban driving. Fuel economy should be decent, though the high-speed or heavy-load driving implied by the recent mileage spike may impact real-world MPG.
Maintenance costs for this SEAT model typically involve standard consumables like tyres and wipers, which are noted as common failure points in the aggregate data. Expect annual running costs to be moderate, but budget for more frequent tyre replacements given the wear patterns seen in the latest MOT.
Inspect the front tyres thoroughly. The 2026 MOT failure specifically cited both nearside and offside front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edges. This can be a sign of incorrect wheel alignment or suspension wear.
Check the headlamp alignment and the condition of the headlight units. The most recent MOT failure included a note that the nearside front headlamp aim was too low and too far to the right. Additionally, since 'suspension arm' is a top failure reason for this model aggregate, a test drive to check for knocks or pulls is highly recommended.
This 2019 blue SEAT Ibiza 999cc petrol has transitioned from a low-mileage vehicle to one that has covered over 40,000 miles in the last year alone. While the 2023 to 2025 MOT records showed no defects, the 2026 MOT failure for tyre wear and headlamp aim indicates a change in how the vehicle is being maintained. The current mileage of 72,183 is significantly higher than the model average of 6,788 per year.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 77.4% MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to suspension arms, tyres, and windscreen wipers.
