2010 Dinli 801 0.3L Petrol · DK10 AEM

The vehicle lacks a current MOT certificate, as the last recorded test was on 21 April 2022. While that test resulted in a pass with no defects at 2,636 miles, the car has been without a valid roadworthiness certificate for over four years. The overall maintenance trend appears stable but dormant, with no recorded mechanical failures across the available history. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 165 miles per year. The record shows only 47 miles were added between the January 2017 pass at 2,589 miles and the April 2022 pass at 2,636 miles. This pattern indicates the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which often introduces risks unrelated to wear and tear. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system and tyres. Long periods of standing frequently lead to binding calipers, seized brake discs, and tyre flat-spotting or perishing. The lack of recent usage suggests that rubber components, such as suspension bushes and coolant hoses, may have degraded due to age rather than mileage. Check for signs of corrosion on the chassis and structural mounting points, as low-use vehicles stored in damp environments are susceptible to rust. Verify the battery health and fluid levels, as the four-year gap since the last MOT suggests the vehicle may require a full mechanical recommissioning before it is safe for road use.
