2018 SEAT Leon 2.0L Petrol · WA18 WDF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection history indicates a significant electrical concern. While the car passed its test on 3 March 2026 at 36,499 miles, it initially failed on the same day due to the engine management indicator light (MIL) being inoperative or indicating a malfunction. This suggests that while the fault was addressed and rectified prior to the retest, there is a potential issue within the engine management system that requires close monitoring. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,562 miles per year. Between March 2023 at 29,157 miles and the 2026 test at 36,499 miles, the car covered only 7,342 miles over three years. This low annual usage typically implies less wear on mechanical components like the drivetrain and suspension; however, low-mileage cars can suffer from age-related degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection to ensure the MIL fault recorded in the 2026 test has been permanently resolved and is not a symptom of a failing sensor or wiring harness. Given the lack of advisories or structural defects in the records from 2023 through 2025, the focus should remain on verifying the condition of the brake discs and tyres, which can perish or surface rust despite low mileage.
