5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2019 Seat Leon (YC19 OMP) between March 2023 and November 2025.
The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.
The most recent test on 24 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (1 issue), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 2 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Upper Macpherson strut top bush or bearing has excessive wear or free play (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.

Our Verdict
This SEAT Leon is a largely sound used b
When viewing this car, pay particular attention to the front Macpherson strut top mounts and bearings, as one was flagged for excessive wear at the November 2024 test. A visual inspection from underneath and a firm hand push on each corner while parked should reveal any clonking or play. The rear brake caliper anti-rattle springs being missing is a minor oversight by the previous owner and is cheap to replace, but it suggests the brakes may not have been serviced as diligently as ideal — check the condition of the rear pads and discs in person and factor the cost of a brake service into any negotiation.
On the 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine, listen for any timing chain rattle on cold start and ask for evidence of the recommended long-life oil and filter changes having been carried out at the correct intervals. Turbocharged petrol Leon models of this era can also suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves if predominantly used for short journeys, so check for smooth idling and even throttle response. A pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the MQB-platform VAG group cars is well worth the modest outlay given the performance-orientated engine.
The 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine is capable of returning mid-30s mpg on a motorway run, with a realistic combined figure in the high-20s to low-30s around town. Annual fuel costs for a car covering around 9,500 miles at current UK petrol prices would typically come to around £1,500-£1,800 depending on driving style. Road tax sits in a reasonable band for a Euro 6 compliant petrol, and the Leon generally falls in insurance group 20-25 depending on trim, putting annual premiums roughly in the £500-£700 range for a typical UK driver.
Routine servicing on the 2.0 TSI follows fixed intervals and is moderately priced at independent specialists, though main dealer servicing carries a premium. Brake fluid and coolant changes, along with the occasional spark plug and coil pack replacement on higher-mileage cars, are the main budget items beyond standard consumables. Allowing for fuel, tax, insurance, and a sensible maintenance budget, a realistic annual running cost is around £2,400-£2,800 for this vehicle.
Given that the November 2024 failure flagged a nearside front upper Macpherson strut top bush or bearing, this is the single most important area to inspect closely. Jack the car up and check for play in the strut top mount by rocking the wheel, and listen for knocking over uneven surfaces on the test drive. Also inspect the rear brake caliper area for the missing anti-rattle springs and confirm that the caliper slide pins move freely, as seized rear calipers are a known weak point on MQB-platform cars. The nearside rear tyre being worn close to the legal limit on the inner or outer edge can indicate a tracking or suspension geometry issue, so check for even tyre wear across all four corners.
More broadly, inspect the underside for any signs of oil leaks from the turbo, sump, or cam chain cover — common areas on higher-mileage TSI engines. Check that all tyres are matching in brand, size, and tread depth, as a mismatched set can mask handling issues. Finally, verify that the most recent advisories-free MOT from November 2025 is genuine by cross-referencing the mileage against the dashboard and the V5C logbook, and confirm the timing chain has not developed any slack or rattle on a cold start.
A 2019 SEAT Leon with a 2.0-litre petrol engine in blue, first registered in March 2019, showing five MOT tests between 2023 and 2025 with the most recent being a clean pass at 63,696 miles in November 2025. Annual mileage implied by the recorded tests works out at roughly 9,500 miles, marginally above the SEAT Leon model average of 8,134. The single recorded failure involved a nearside rear tyre, a missing rear anti-rattle spring on both brake calipers, and a worn front strut top bearing — all typical wear-related items for a car of this age and mileage.
The SEAT Leon shows a strong MOT pass rate of 82.5% across nearly 200,000 vehicles analysed, placing it above average for its class. The most common MOT failure points — headlamps, brake discs, and coil springs — are typical consumable wear items rather than inherent design flaws.
