2019 SEAT Leon 1.5L Petrol · OV69 XKM

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 28 May 2026 at 39,732 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend following a period of reactive repairs in late 2024 and mid-2025. The clean result from the latest test suggests that the issues identified in previous inspections have been addressed and the vehicle is currently meeting standards. At seven years old, the recorded mileage of 39,732 miles represents a low usage profile of approximately 5,676 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between November 2024 and June 2025, where the car covered 4,956 miles in seven months, followed by another 2,595 miles leading into the final test. While low mileage generally results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and brake systems if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension and braking systems. The November 2024 test at 32,181 miles flagged all four shock absorbers for light misting of oil; while this was not a failure at the time, the buyer should verify that these seals have not progressed to active leaks requiring immediate replacement. Additionally, the record noted corrosion on the rear brake hose ferrules and worn rear pads and discs. These components should be inspected to ensure the corrosion has not advanced and that the braking hardware has been replaced as indicated. The failure on 9 June 2025 at 37,136 miles due to a nearside rear tyre with a cut reaching the cords was resolved quickly, as the vehicle passed just two days later. The buyer should check the remaining tyres for consistent age and matching tread depth. Given the history of thin brake pads noted in late 2024, verifying the current thickness of the friction material is essential to ensure the previous owner has maintained up with necessary service intervals.
