1988 YAMAHA UNKNOWN0.7L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by three consecutive years of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 22 June 2024 at 9,246 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates that the vehicle has remained in a consistent state of compliance with MOT standards without any mechanical or structural failures surfacing during the annual testing cycle. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 38-year-old machine, averaging only approximately 243 miles per year. Between June 2022 and June 2024, the vehicle covered just 321 miles total, moving from 8,925 to 9,246 miles. This minimal usage suggests the vehicle is likely used sparingly or kept in storage for long periods. While this limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it introduces specific risks associated with age-related degradation rather than mechanical fatigue. Given the low-mile history, a physical inspection must focus on components affected by lack of use rather than mileage. A buyer should verify the age and condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking, as rubber degrades over time regardless of tread remains. The braking system should be checked for caliper seizing or internal corrosion due to fluid moisture absorption and infrequent operation. Additionally, rubber bushes in the suspension and fuel lines should be examined for perish or cracking, which are common failure points on vintage vehicles that do not accumulate significant mileage.
