2019 SEAT Leon 1.5L Petrol · YG19 YRN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from perfect condition to reactive repairs. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 44,837 miles passed, it introduced a new advisory for oil misting on both front shock absorbers. This indicates the early stages of seal failure in the suspension components. Following a clean record in 2023, the vehicle has begun to show signs of wear and tear that require proactive monitoring. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage commuter car, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap of nearly 9,000 miles between the 2023 test at 21,356 miles and the 2024 test at 31,277 miles. This period of higher usage coincides with the failure in April 2024, where multiple brake pads and tyres reached their legal limits simultaneously. The data suggests that the previous owner may have deferred maintenance until components failed rather than performing preventative servicing. A buyer must inspect the front suspension closely to monitor the misting shock absorbers, as the 2024 failure on the rear brake pads and tyres suggests the vehicle may run on long service intervals. The nearside front tyre uneven wear noted in 2024 points to a potential alignment or tracking issue that should be verified to prevent premature wear on new rubber. Additionally, because the 2025 test was obstructed by a child seat preventing a full inspection of the rear seat belts, a physical check of the belt mechanisms and webbing is necessary to ensure there is no hidden fraying or damage.
