AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2007 SEAT ALTEA's roadworthiness status appears stable based on the most recent MOT test on 2026-02-12 at 232,215 miles, where it passed with minor advisories. These included worn, pitted, or scored front and rear brake discs, slightly damaged offside front tyre, and a front oil leak. The vehicle's mileage pattern indicates high usage for its age. With 232,215 miles recorded over nearly 19 years, the average annual mileage is approximately 12,222 miles. A notable gap in testing occurred between 2024-02-19 and 2025-02-14, with two tests on the same day showing a pass and a fail; the reason for these duplicate tests is unclear. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension, particularly the ball joint dust covers, and brakes, given recurring advisories. The nearside front suspension arm ball joint dust cover was severely deteriorated in the 2024 tests. Brake disc wear was noted in the 2026 test, suggesting ongoing brake system maintenance. Additionally, the buyer should verify the status of the supplementary restraint system, as a warning lamp fault was recorded in the 2025 test. The buyer should also scrutinise the vehicle's tyres, as wear close to the legal limit was noted in 2024, and the offside front tyre showed damage in 2026. Overall, while the vehicle has passed recent MOT tests, its maintenance history indicates areas requiring attention to ensure continued safe operation.
