2020 SEAT Arona 1.0L Petrol · SP70 UHC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent MOT history indicates a shift toward reactive maintenance. While it passed the test on 10 November 2025 at 42,179 miles, it did so after an initial failure due to multiple defects across tyres and braking components. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to multiple failures recently suggests that the owner is now only addressing faults when prompted by the testing process rather than performing preventative care. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. Between September 2023 at 23,903 miles and November 2024 at 29,295 miles, the car covered roughly 5,400 miles, reflecting light annual use. However, the 12,884 miles covered between November 2024 and November 2025 show a significant spike in usage which explains the accelerated wear on consumable items despite the low overall mileage. A buyer must specifically inspect the rear braking system, as the record shows a history of issues including binding on both rear wheels in November 2025 and a pitted, worn disc in September 2023. Persistent binding issues suggest potentially seized calipers or sticking slide pins which could lead to uneven wear or premature failure. The November 2025 failure for perished tyre sidewalls and low front tread depth also indicates that the vehicle may have sat for long periods or used low-quality rubber, necessitating a thorough check of all four tyres for structural cracking and adequate tread.
