2012 SEAT Ibiza 1.4L Petrol · VO62 FSJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available history over the last three years. The most recent test conducted on 20 August 2021 at 84,482 miles passed with no defects, indicating the car was in a good mechanical state at that time. However, there are no MOT records available for the following five years, meaning the vehicle is currently years overdue for its annual test. This significant gap creates substantial uncertainty regarding the current state of safety components and structural integrity since the last inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between September 2018 and August 2021, the car covered 10,636 miles, moving from 73,846 to 84,482 miles. This low annual mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts or seized brake calipers. The lack of data after 2021 makes it impossible to determine how many miles have been driven in the last five years. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection to account for the lack of recent documentation. Prior attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and coil springs, which tend to perish with age regardless of low mileage. The single failure in September 2020 regarding the driver's interior door mechanism was a minor mechanical fault, but the buyer should verify all door seals and handles remain functional. Given the vehicle's age, a check for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust system is essential to ensure the chassis has not suffered from rust during the unrecorded years of use.
