2021 SEAT Ateca FR Sport TSI EVO 1.5L Petrol · PY21 HSE

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, following an improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in November 2025 at 46,018 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous tests have been addressed, and the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal standards for road safety and environmental emissions. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,200 miles per annum. Between the May 2024 test at 33,440 miles and the December 2024 test at 38,393 miles, the car covered 4,953 miles in just seven months, showing a period of active use. The interval between the recent MOT tests suggests the vehicle is driven regularly, which helps prevent the issues associated with long periods of stationary. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system, as the May 2024 test at 33,440 miles flagged both the offside and nearside rear brake pads as wearing thin. While the subsequent passes suggest these were replaced, a physical inspection should verify the condition of the brake discs for scoring or uneven wear. Given the age and mileage, a check of the suspension bushes and bushings for signs of premature wear is also advisable, although these have not yet been flagged in the official record.
