2012 SEAT Exeo 2.0L Diesel · VO12 CUW

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent pass record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 12 August 2025 at 86,504 miles resulted in a pass without advisories, indicating that previous mechanical and electrical issues have been addressed. While the history shows minor recurring faults in the past, the trend suggests a proactive approach to maintenance rather than escalating mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 79,457 miles and August 2025 at 86,504 miles, the car covered 7,047 miles, which aligns with the historical annual average. This low-frequency usage typically reduces the wear on drivetrain components and braking systems, though it can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion due to lack of active use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, as the 2023 test flagged a damaged offside front track rod end ball joint dust cover. Although this was rectified, a thorough check of the remaining boots and bushes on the front axle is necessary to ensure no further deterioration. The record also shows recurring nearside front position lamp failures in 2021 and 2022, suggesting a minor electrical circuit was previously overlooked; a quick test of all lighting clusters and bulbs is warranted.
