2006 SEAT Ibiza: petrol or diesel?

Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.

Petrol 49% pass first time (all 2006 cars: 56%) Stands out: exhaust system 1.7×, suspension arm 2.5×, washers 2.1× 6,841 MOTsSee the petrol guide › Diesel 53% pass first time (all 2006 cars: 56%) Stands out: drive shaft (cv) joints 2.7×, suspension arm 2.1×, handbrake performance 2.5× 1,368 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›

Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
