2017 SEAT Leon 1.4L Petrol · NL17 LUP

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its latest MOT on 26 June 2025 at 65,734 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improvement in maintenance discipline compared to the previous year, where the car initially failed due to emissions issues and an insecure component. The transition from a failure to a clean pass certificate indicates that the current owner is addressing identified mechanical faults rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per annum. There is a gap of 14,063 miles between the June 2023 and 2024 tests, followed by an 8,018-mile interval between July 2024 and June 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which generally helps to prevent the degradation of rubber components and brake seizure often seen in very low-mileage cars. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system during a physical evaluation. The June 2023 test at 43,651 miles flagged both thin pads and pitted rear brake discs. While these were likely replaced before the subsequent pass, the current condition of the rear rotors should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion that has returned. Additionally, the 2024 failure regarding the exhaust Lambda reading suggests the oxygen sensor or catalytic converter may have been serviced recently; monitoring the engine for any rough idling or smoke during a test drive will ensure the emissions system remains efficient.
