1962 Lancia 2.5L Petrol · 2 AOD

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, reflecting a consistent history of clean passes in recent years. The most recent test on 6 May 2025 at 71,073 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and environmental standards. This trend of flawless results over the last four years suggests a meticulous approach to maintenance and a high standard of care by recent owners. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 1,111 miles per year over its lifetime. Between March 2022 and May 2025, the car covered 4,554 miles, which confirms infrequent use or long-term storage in a controlled environment. However, the record shows a significant gap between September 2020 and March 2022, during which the vehicle covered only 1,923 miles. Such low usage often correlates with age on rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear and tear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the rubberwork, as the September 2020 test flagged all four tyres for perishing and cracking. While these appear to have been addressed given subsequent clean passes, low-mileage classic cars often suffer from dry-rotted brake hoses and perished suspension bushings. Inspect the structural integrity of the chassis for hidden corrosion that may develop during stationary periods, as these are prone to moisture retention in areas where airflow is not generated by regular driving.
