2021 SEAT Tarraco 2.0L Diesel · RF70 FUG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in February 2026 at 61,913 miles, it had failed just one day prior due to a significantly worn offside rear brake disc and suspension bushing issues. The presence of worn front lower suspension arm bushes on both sides suggests that the front end is reaching the end of its functional life, necessitating immediate attention to prevent further degradation of handling. At 61,913 miles over five years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 12,400 miles per annum. This is above the national average for a modern SUV and places consistent strain on drivetrain and chassis components. The record shows steady mileage accumulation, with roughly 13,300 miles covered between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 13,500 miles covered in the following year. This consistent use explains the accelerated wear observed on consumable items, but it also explains the recurring mechanical issues noted across the MOT history. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry and braking system. The history shows a pattern of uneven tyre wear, with 2025 and 2024 records flagging bald inner edges on multiple tyres, which typically points to a persistent misalignment issue or worn shock absorbers and bushings. The failure for a significantly worn offside rear brake disc in 2026 indicates that the previous owner neglected brake components until they reached a critical point. You should check all brake calipers for binding and ensure the front lower suspension arms have been replaced rather than adjusted, as the tester flagged wear on both sides simultaneously.
