2017 SEAT Ibiza 1.0L Petrol · PE67 KXB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend following a specific mechanical failure. The most recent test in September 2025 at 24,212 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory for a deteriorated rear number. This indicates that the primary mechanical concerns identified in previous years have been addressed, as the vehicle maintained a clean record through the 2024 and late 2023 inspections. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,700 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered only 7,657 miles, suggesting infrequent use or long periods of stationary. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it increases the risk of rubber components degrading over time, as evidenced by the 2022 advisory at 16,555 miles regarding perishing on the nearside rear tyre. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension to ensure the repairs following the September 2023 failure of the track rod end ball joint dust covers on both sides were executed correctly and have not recur. Given the low mileage, it is vital to check for flat-spotting on tyres and sidewall cracking, which often occurs when vehicles sit for extended periods. Additionally, examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can lead to accelerated oxidation on the rotors.
