1904 HUMBER 0.8L PETROL

The vehicle falls into the 'good' category, but the maintenance trend is not stable; it is worsening. The most recent test on 2026-06-17 at 5,641 miles shows the Offside Front Axle king pin has slight play in the pin and/or bush, a defect that has persisted since 2012. This indicates that the tester flagged binding rear brakes as the primary issue, which has remained consistent across the vehicle's history. The mileage pattern is poor relative to the vehicle's age. The 1904 Humber, approximately 122 years old, has only 5,641 recorded miles, averaging only 46 miles per year. This low mileage suggests that the owner may have been less active or the vehicle was not driven for a long period, which is a risk factor for wear on the engine, transmission, and drivetrain components. The lack of mileage accumulation means there is no evidence of rapid consumption of brake discs, suspension bushings, or coil springs, but the 2012 test specifically noted play in the axle pin and bush, which is a structural concern. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for corrosion on the brake discs and bushings, check the binding calipers, and examine the exhaust emissions for signs of carbon buildup. Given the 2012 test showing play in the axle pin and bush, the car has structural integrity issues that must be addressed before use. The history suggests that basic upkeep was skipped, leading to these recurring faults, and the lack of mileage accumulation implies that the engine and drivetrain components may be in poor condition given the age of the vehicle.
