Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
The primary concern with this vehicle is the 'advisory creep'. The steering rack inner joint play has been noted in 2024, 2025, and 2026 without being rectified. You should treat this as a pending repair and use it as a significant negotiation point. Similarly, check if the brake hose corrosion and suspension bush wear noted in 2025 have been addressed, as they reappeared in the 2026 test.
Verify the service history to see if any mechanical work was carried out between MOTs. Because the 2026 MOT was passed with multiple advisories regarding tyres (worn to 2.1mm and 3/4mm) and an exhaust leak, these items will require immediate financial investment upon purchase.
The 1390cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency in urban environments, typically falling into a moderate insurance group for small hatchbacks. Based on aggregate data for over 223,000 Ibizas, the most frequent maintenance costs involve tyres and brake discs, both of which are highlighted in this specific vehicle's history.
Annual running costs will include road tax, insurance, and fuel, alongside the necessary maintenance to address the recurring corrosion and wear issues. Given the current state of the exhaust and tyres, the first year of ownership will likely be more expensive than average.
A professional inspection of the steering rack is essential, as 'play in steering rack inner joint(s)' has been a recurring issue for three years. Closely examine the rear axle and power steering pipes for the corrosion mentioned in the 2025 and 2026 MOT reports, as structural or fluid leaks can be costly to repair.
Check the exhaust system, specifically the rear silencer, for the leak and deterioration noted in the most recent test. Finally, inspect all four tyres; the rear tyres were recorded as being close to the legal limit in August 2026 and will likely need immediate replacement.
This 2015 Grey SEAT Ibiza has covered 61,948 miles, which is below the model's average annual mileage. However, the MOT history reveals a consistent trend of recurring advisories across several years, specifically concerning the steering rack, brake hoses, and exhaust system. A failure in September 2024 for a fractured coil spring was recorded before the vehicle passed.
The SEAT Ibiza generally maintains a steady reputation with a 77.5% average MOT pass rate, with failures typically linked to common wear items like tyres and wipers.
