What warranty do Approved Used SEATs come with?
All SEAT Approved Used cars come with at least a 24-month warranty. If the car is still within the original three-year/60,000-mile factory warranty, the Approved Used cover will extend that protection, and it covers both mechanical and electrical parts.
Is there MOT cover with Approved Used SEATs?
Yes. You get up to 24 months of MOT cover with each Approved Used SEAT. This includes up to £750 of MOT-related repairs if the car fails its test, subject to a £10 excess per claim.
Is there an inspection with Approved Used SEATs?
Every SEAT goes through a detailed multi-point inspection before being listed as Approved Used. This ensures that only vehicles meeting SEAT's standards make it to the forecourt. The inspection covers everything from braking performance to interior condition. If you're not happy with your new car, you can exchange it within 30 days.
Do SEAT Approved Used cars come with a history check?
Yes, SEAT checks the service history, verifies mileage, confirms the car's identity, and ensures that there are no outstanding finance or insurance claims. This is all to give you both transparency and extra peace of mind in your purchase.
Is there an exchange policy with Approved Used SEATs?
If you're not happy with your car within the first 30 days or 1000 miles (whichever comes first), you can exchange it for another SEAT of the same or higher value. You’ll need to cover any price difference and the car must be returned in the condition it was sold.
Are there any extras included with SEAT Approved Used cars?
There are, yes. You’ll get from five days’ drive-away insurance, roadside assistance, and the option of service and finance packages. For newer cars (under 36 months), SEAT also offers a finance contribution and a discounted servicing plan.

Which SEAT is right for me?
SEAT makes a range of different cars, spanning small city cars to spacious family SUVs, with plenty of sporty options in between. For first-time drivers, those who live in an urban area or if you just don't need a big car, the Mii city car is compact but fun to drive and and cheap to run, while the Ibiza is one of the best small cars on the market.
For a bit more space, SEAT’s popular Leon comes as a family hatchback or estate, while on the SUV front Seat offers three cracking choices – the compact Arona , the mid-sized Ateca, and the full-size Tarraco, which can seat up to seven.
If you need even more space, the Alhambra is a great used choice and one of the best-value MPVs for transporting people and luggage in comfort. If you're after something with electric power, the Mii Electric is a battery-powered version of the small city car.
Tell me something I don’t know about SEAT
SEAT’s sporty Bocanegra editions, which means ‘black nose’ in Spanish, are named for their distinctive black front detailing. SEAT was founded in 1950 and originally partnered with Fiat before becoming part of the Volkswagen Group in the 1980s.
