2011 SEAT Leon S Copa CR TDI Ecomotive 1.6L Diesel · TM08 MOR

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT test on 27 May 2025 at 132,659 miles, where no defects were recorded. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes, the owner has consistently addressed identified issues to maintain compliance. The transition from a failure in early May 2025 to a clean pass three weeks later suggests that the mechanical concerns were rectified promptly rather than representing a state of ongoing neglect. The mileage profile remains consistent with typical usage for a fifteen-year-old diesel, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. There is a notable gap of 17,323 miles covered between April 2024 and May 2025 tests, indicating a period of higher intensity compared to the previous year. Conversely, the 7,719 miles covered between February 2023 and April 2024 shows a more moderate usage pattern. This steady accumulation suggests expected wear on the drivetrain and suspension components typical of a high-mileage TDI diesel engine. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that likely triggered the failures in 2023 and 2025, although the record does not specify the exact components for those faults. Given the age and mileage of this Leon, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is essential to identify rubber degradation. The structural integrity of the chassis and exhaust sills for corrosion is also vital, as vehicles of this era are prone to surface rust over fifteen years. Testing the braking system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear will ensure the recent clean MOT reflects a truly healthy mechanical state.
