Our Verdict
Approach with caution and budget for new wheels and tyres before purchase. The 2019 SEAT Leon (Y77MBR) passed its most recent MOT but failed just weeks earlier on serious wheel faults that must be investigated.
Before buying Y77MBR, confirm the August 2025 wheel failure was properly repaired with new or sound used wheels and ask for invoices proving the work. The MOT history shows recurring front tyre perishing and edge wear in 2023 and 2025, plus light shock absorber misting on the Nearside Front in both 2023 and 2024, so check for replacement evidence in the service history. Given no model aggregate reliability data is available, rely on the individual history: negotiate on the basis of recent wheel and tyre costs and the 2024 note of a windscreen chip that may still be present.
The 1984cc petrol Euro 6 BG engine in this Leon typically sits in a moderate insurance group for a warm hatch, with road tax around £190 per year for post-April 2017 petrol cars of this size. Fuel economy on similar 2.0 petrol Leons is usually mid-30s to low-40s mpg in mixed driving, so budget accordingly. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance is around £1,400-£1,700, with recent MOT items suggesting above-average consumable spend this year.
Inspect both front wheels closely for any sign of the August 2025 fracture or distortion noted at 47,735 miles; a fractured wheel is a serious safety fault and you must verify it was replaced, not welded. Check all four tyres for cracking, perishing and edge wear as flagged on the Nearside and Offside Front in 2023 and again on the rear in April 2025, and confirm the windscreen damage from March 2024 has not spread. Look at the front brake pads and rear discs noted as worn in 2023-2024 and confirm they have been serviced within the recorded 46,211-47,751 mileage span.
This blue 2019 SEAT Leon with the 1984cc petrol engine shows 47,751 miles on its latest 2025-09-23 MOT, which is broadly in line with average use for a six-and-a-half-year-old car. The MOT history includes a failure in August 2025 for a fractured Nearside Front wheel and distorted Offside Front wheel, both since rectified. Earlier tests from 2023 and 2024 flagged worn tyres, misting shock absorbers, thinning brake pads and a damaged windscreen, indicating steady wear items needing attention.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the SEAT Leon to draw on, so assessment is limited to this vehicle's individual history.
