2016 SEAT Ibiza SOL 1.0L Petrol · TO16 LEX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 April 2025 at 56,957 miles passed with no defects or advisories, maintaining a clean record across the last five inspections. This consistent performance suggests that the previous owners have maintained a proactive approach to upkeep, avoiding the mechanical or structural failures that typically trigger MOT failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per annum. There is a visible gap in records between October 2020 and March 2022, during which the car covered only 7,686 miles over seventeen months. Since the 2022 test, usage has become more regular, covering roughly 6,000 miles in the following year and another 9,185 miles leading into the 2024 test. This low annual mileage generally indicates less wear on drivetrain components and suspension, though it can necessitate checking for rubber-part degradation or fluid oxidation. Because the MOT history shows no advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on verifying that these components remain in good condition. A buyer should specifically inspect the tyres for flat spotting or cracking, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from uneven wear. Given the clean record, checking the brake discs for surface rust and the chassis for structural integrity will confirm that the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of inactivity.
