2023 SEAT Arona FR Ecotsi 1.0L Petrol · YS23 MOU

The overall roadworthiness status is currently compliant following a pass on 2026-05-22 at 17,151 miles, though the maintenance trend includes a severe initial failure during that same appointment due to structural damage on two tyres. The test log shows that the vehicle failed its initial 2026 examination when the tester recorded major defects for cuts reaching the ply or cords on both the offside rear tyre and the offside front tyre. These faults were rectified immediately, allowing the vehicle to secure a pass later that same day. Because this is the only recorded test in the history file, there is no prior multi-year data available to establish whether component wear is stable or worsening. The recorded mileage stands at 17,151 miles for a vehicle that is approximately three years old, translating to an annual average of roughly 5,717 miles. This accumulation rate sits below the national average for private passenger cars of this age. The data is exceptionally sparse due to the young age of the vehicle, containing just the single test event in May 2026. Low mileage accumulation of this nature can occasionally indicate periods of extended inactivity or strictly localized urban driving, though the current record provides no further contextual evidence regarding storage conditions. A physical inspection must prioritize the condition of the recently replaced offside tyres and a thorough check of the remaining tyre set for sidewall degradation, cracking, or impact damage consistent with curb strikes. Buyers should inspect the alloy wheels for curbing that may have caused the tyre cuts noted in the MOT failure, alongside a detailed examination of the braking system components and suspension dampers. Suspension bushes and drop links warrant close scrutiny for premature aging or perishing of the rubber, which can occur when vehicles are driven infrequently or stored outdoors.
