1969 MORRIS 6 CWT2.0L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend despite minor electrical and lighting lapses. The most recent test in July 2024 at 10,903 miles resulted in a pass with advisories for both rear tyres being near the legal limit. This follows a brief failure in June 2023 for a faulty nearside indicator and low headlamp aim, which were corrected immediately within twenty-four hours to achieve a pass the following day. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 57-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 191 miles per year. Between February 2021 and July 2024, the car covered only 1,761 miles, moving from 9,142 to 10,903. This infrequent usage suggests the vehicle is used only occasionally or has sat stationary for long periods. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and potential fluid corrosion due to inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as recurring advisories for worn rear tyres in 2022 and 2024 indicate uneven wear or potential alignment issues. Given the low mileage, the brake system and suspension bushings must be checked for seized calipers or perished rubber which is common in classic vehicles that sit frequently. The age of the tyres and rubber hoses is also critical here, as tread depth does not account for age-related cracking.
