2021 SEAT Tarraco 2.0L Diesel · OV21 JXG

The most recent MOT (2 June 2025) was a clean pass. The only comment was a damaged windscreen that does not impair the driver’s view, and a small amount of corrosion on the edges of the rear brake discs. This tells us that, at the time of the test, the vehicle met all safety standards and there were no urgent defects. A year earlier (6 June 2024) the same windscreen damage was recorded, and the MOT highlighted several front‑tyre and front‑brake concerns: the off‑side front tyre had a slightly damaged outer sidewall, both front tyres were close to the legal tread limit (about 3 mm remaining), the front brake disc was worn (though not excessively) and the inner front brake pads were already thin. The rear brake discs only showed minor edge corrosion, which is a low‑risk cosmetic issue. The recurring pattern is therefore wear on the front tyres and front braking components, plus the persistent windscreen damage. The 2025 report does not mention tyre or front‑brake wear, which suggests either that the tyres were replaced or the wear was no longer at the legal limit. Because the rear‑brake corrosion remains minor, the overall trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. At roughly 33 000 mi over five years (about 6 700 mi per year), the mileage is typical for a 2021 model. It does not point to heavy, high‑stress use, but it also does not indicate long periods of inactivity.
