1985 Vauxhall Cavalier 1.6L Petrol · B819 WWX

The vehicle is presently recorded as roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 19 May 2022 at 62,317 miles. The failure recorded six days earlier, on 13 May 2022 at 62,316 miles, listed no defects, indicating the issue was likely administrative rather than mechanical. With no defect trend emerging from the available data, the maintenance pattern appears stable. At 62,317 miles after 41 years, the average annual mileage is roughly 1,520 miles, markedly below typical usage for a car of this age. No sudden spikes or gaps in the record are evident; the only entries are the two May 2022 tests, suggesting either very low annual mileage or periods of long-term storage. The low mileage reduces the likelihood of accelerated wear on major components, yet it does not preclude age‑related deterioration. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and any signs of corrosion on the chassis, as age can affect structural integrity despite low mileage. Inspect brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and confirm tyre tread depth and uniformity, given the absence of recorded tyre advisories. A thorough visual check for rust, especially around wheel arches and undercarriage, will complement the MOT history and reveal any latent issues not captured in the brief test records.
