2021 SEAT Leon SE Dynamic TSI EVO 1.0L Petrol · SD21 FFN

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring issue with tyre management. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 49,451 miles passed, it flagged an advisory for a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This mirrors an advisory from the January 2025 test at 36,622 miles, where the nearside rear tyre was also noted for similar wear. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,890 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 29,377 miles and the January 2025 test at 36,622 miles, the car covered 7,245 miles, followed by a more significant run of 12,829 miles leading up to the most recent MOT. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and brake components. A buyer should specifically inspect the front alignment and suspension geometry, as the recurring edge wear on the nearside tyres suggests a persistent misalignment issue or worn suspension bushes. The lack of defects in the 2024 record indicates the structural integrity and primary systems were sound then, but the repeated tyre advisories imply the previous owner neglected basic consumable maintenance until necessary. A physical check of the remaining tread depth and the condition of the tyres is essential to ensure no immediate replacement is required.
