1988 JEEP GRAND WAGONEER6.1L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of clean inspection results. The most recent test on 28 February 2025 at 104,103 miles recorded no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal standards. After a failure in July 2021, the Jeep has maintained a consistent pass record without recurring mechanical or structural failures across the last three inspections. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 38-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,740 miles per year. There is a significant discrepancy in data between the July 2021 test at 108,057 miles and the July 2022 test at 9,277 miles, suggesting either an odometer recording error or a significant period where the vehicle remained stationary. Between July 2022 and March 2024, the car covered only 37 miles, which highlights low-frequency use that often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals despite the lack of mechanical wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and chassis for corrosion, as low-mileage vintage vehicles frequently suffer from hidden rust in frame rails and floor pans. The long intervals of inactivity suggest that suspension bushes and brake hoses may have perished or cracked due to age rather than use. Attention should be paid to the brake system for seized calipers or rusted discs, which are common failure points for vehicles that sit for extended periods between tests.
