2017 SEAT MII 1.0L Petrol · NX17 PXY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test on March 10 2026 at 60,186 miles passed only after a failure the previous day. While the owner addressed the imbalanced rear brakes and deteriorated tyres to secure the pass, the recurring issues with the registration plates, wipers, and bodywork suggest that faults are often only rectified when they threaten an MOT-pass status. At 60,186 miles over nine years, the SEAT MII has averaged approximately 6,700 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a city car. The mileage data shows consistent progression between tests, with a 5,170-mile gap between March 2024 and February 2025, and another 5,061 miles leading into the most recent inspection. This steady use suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, though the low mileage may explain the degradation of rubber-based components noted in the advisory records. A buyer should physically inspect the tyres closely, as the record shows multiple instances of cracking, perishing, and structural sidewall damage across different axles. The imbalanced rear brakes noted in March 2026 warrant a check for seized calipers or sticking pistons to ensure the uneven wear is not recurring. Additionally, the distorted offside rear inner wheel recorded in 2025 indicates a previous significant impact, which necessitates an inspection for tracking alignment issues or damage to the suspension geometry. The jagged edge on the body panel mentioned in 2025 also requires attention to ensure the structural integrity of the lower chassis remains uncompromised.
