2022 Cupra Formentor V1 TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · V8 CEA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on July 18, 2025. The maintenance trend shows a resolving pattern, as the initial failure on that same day was limited to tyre-related defects. The tester originally flagged the nearside front tyre for a cut deep enough to reach the cords, but the subsequent pass indicates this and the minor offside tyre damage were addressed and rectified. A minor advisory remains regarding a nearside rear child seat which obstructed a full inspection of the adult seatbelt. At four years old with a recorded mileage of 19,439 miles, the vehicle averages approximately 4,860 miles per year. This is significantly lower than the national average, suggesting low-intensity use or frequent storage. Such low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and brake components, though it can occasionally lead to flat-spotting tyres or brake corrosion. The record is sparse because the vehicle is relatively new, with only recent entries providing primary testing data. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyre condition to ensure the previous faults were replaced with high-quality units and not merely patched or poorly fitted. Given the history of multiple cuts on the sidewalls, the inspector should check for signs of impact or alignment issues that may have caused these injuries. Additionally, the nearside rear child seat should be removed during inspection to allow a thorough check of the adult seatbelt tension and webbing, as this prevented a full clearance during the last test.
