1960 TRIUMPH HERALD0.9L PETROL

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, passing its most recent MOT test on 2022-11-20 at 87,400 miles. However, the tester flagged two critical issues: integral body structure corrosion that compromises rigidity, and a corroded brake pipe covered in grease. Both defects require immediate rectification to prevent structural failure and brake system leakage. The low annual mileage of approximately 1,324 miles per year suggests the car has seen minimal wear, likely due to long periods of storage rather than active use. The MOT record is sparse, with only a single test in the history, offering limited insight into maintenance consistency. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the corrosion around the chassis and wheel arches, checking for any further deterioration. Additionally, the brake pipe should be examined for signs of imminent failure, and the overall brake system should be tested for leaks or binding. Given the car's age and the noted defects, a professional restoration or comprehensive mechanical overhaul is advisable before regular road use.
