2011 SEAT Leon 2.0L Diesel · YF11 TOH

The 2025-08-11 MOT result was a failure, indicating the vehicle is presently not roadworthy. The maintenance record shows a persistent pattern of suspension and brake faults, with repeated failures on coil springs, anti‑roll bar ball joints and brake pad wear, suggesting the trend is worsening rather than improving. At 15 years old the recorded 141,642 miles equate to roughly 9,443 miles per year, which is typical for the model, but the interval from 2022-05-31 (113,118 miles) to 2022-08-25 (116,945 miles) adds 3,827 miles in three months, indicating a period of higher usage, and the 2024-08-14 to 2025-08-11 span adds 4,898 miles in eleven months, also above the average annual mileage. A buyer should therefore inspect the near‑side and off‑side coil springs for corrosion or fracture, verify the condition of the anti‑roll bar ball joints and linkage for play or detachment, examine the rear brake pads and discs for wear beyond the 1.5 mm threshold, check tyre tread and feathering for uneven wear, and look for structural rust on the exhaust back box and suspension components, as these recurring faults point to potential safety risks that must be confirmed on site.
