2005 SEAT Ibiza 1.9L Diesel · R8 KDY

The most recent MOT on 25 August 2025 recorded a pass at 81,484 miles, indicating the vehicle is presently roadworthy and the maintenance trend appears stable; no recurring faults emerge from the five‑year record. Mileage averages roughly 3,880 miles per year for a 2005 model, well below typical usage. Between the 10 August 2022 test at 71,980 miles and the 25 August 2025 test the odometer rose by 9,504 miles, a consistent increase of about 3,200 miles per annum, suggesting no periods of intensive use or prolonged storage. The absence of recorded defects across all tests reinforces the impression of a lightly exercised chassis. A prospective buyer should verify tyre tread depth and uniform wear, as consumables are not reflected in the MOT entries. Inspect the front and rear suspension for worn bushes or cracked coil springs, and check brake discs and calipers for any signs of glazing or uneven wear. Examine the under‑carriage for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and chassis joints, and confirm that exhaust emissions remain within legal limits. The brief failure on 15 August 2025, despite no defects logged, may point to an administrative issue; confirming the reason with the testing centre or reviewing service documentation will provide additional confidence.
