1987 HONDA C500.0L Petrol

The 1987 Honda C50 passed its most recent MOT on 31 October 2025 at 34,454 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable and clean maintenance trend as of that test. The single available record shows no advisories or failures across its lifetime on file, suggesting the machine has entered the current ownership period in sound roadworthy condition. Recorded mileage stands at 34,454 against an approximate 39-year lifespan, equating to roughly 883 miles per year. This low annual accumulation reflects light use or extended periods in storage rather than active daily running. The DVSA history contains only the one entry from October 2025, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests can be evidenced from the supplied data; the sparse record prevents deeper trend analysis. A buyer should still inspect the C50 in person for age-related corrosion on the frame and exhaust, given the 1987 build and likelihood of prolonged standing. Check the suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers for stiffness or binding from inactivity. Verify tyre sidewall condition and tread, as rubber degrades with time irrespective of low mileage. The absence of recorded faults implies previous keepers addressed consumables before the test, but the single clean pass offers no longitudinal proof of ongoing care. A pre-purchase examination of structural integrity and drivetrain wear remains prudent before commitment.
