2019 SEAT Leon 1.6L Diesel · SH19 ODN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on recent testing, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 July 2026 at 132,670 miles. While the tester flagged a nearside rear tyre for slight damage or perishing, this represents a minor consumable issue rather than a mechanical failure. The absence of defects in the July 2025 test suggests a period of consistent maintenance, though the most recent advisory indicates that tyre replacement should be scheduled soon to prevent further degradation. The mileage accumulation is significantly higher than average for a 2019 vehicle, averaging approximately 18,953 miles per year. A notable increase in usage occurred between July 2024 and July 2025, where the mileage jumped from 81,818 to 126,911, representing a 45,093-mile interval in just twelve months. This high-intensity usage pattern places increased stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems compared to typical domestic driving cycles. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components and tyres. The record shows a history of suspension-related issues, specifically the offside rear coil spring failure in April 2023 at 56,085 miles, and tyre wear issues in March 2022 at 32,346 miles. Given the high annual mileage, particular attention must be paid to the condition of the shock absorbers, suspension bushes, and the overall integrity of the tyre sidewalls to ensure the recent perishing noted in the 2026 test is not indicative of broader rubber degradation.
