2011 SEAT Exeo Sport Tech CR TDI168 2.0L Heavy oil · SJ54 XEO

The 2026‑04‑30 MOT at 162,141 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, improving trend. Since the 2025‑04‑19 failure, which also listed no defects, the subsequent 2025‑05‑09 test at 154,034 miles passed, and the 2026‑04‑30 result follows the same pattern, indicating that any earlier issues were corrected before the latest inspection. The mileage trajectory over the 15‑year lifespan averages 10,809 miles per year, a figure consistent with typical usage for a 2011 SEAT EXEO. Accumulation was relatively even: from 2018‑03‑02 (80,687 miles) to 2019‑03‑08 (96,790 miles) the car covered 16,103 miles in one year, then increased to 20,570 miles between 2019‑03‑08 and 2021‑03‑12, before settling to increments of 7,500–10,000 miles per year in the most recent three years. A buyer should therefore focus on components that commonly degrade with age and mileage: suspension bushes and coil springs may show wear after high annual mileage, brake discs and calipers could exhibit binding or uneven wear, and structural rust on the chassis or wheel arches should be examined for corrosion. Although the MOT history lists no defects, the absence of recorded issues does not guarantee the condition of wear items, so a physical inspection of tyre tread depth, brake pad thickness, and exhaust system integrity is advisable. Given the vehicle’s age and the steady mileage pattern, the buyer should also verify that the timing belt, if applicable, has been replaced according to the manufacturer’s schedule, and confirm that service records align with the mileage intervals shown in the MOT history.
