2014 PONTIAC TRANS AM4.9L Petrol

The vehicle currently lacks a valid MOT, with the most recent recorded test occurring on 4 October 2022 at 79,530 miles. The records for that date are contradictory, showing both a pass and a fail at the identical mileage with no defects listed for either outcome. This anomaly prevents establishing a clear maintenance trend. Given the nearly four-year gap since the last test, the current roadworthiness status remains entirely unknown. At twelve years old with 79,530 miles recorded, the vehicle averages roughly 6,628 miles per year, which aligns with typical light use. However, the odometer reading has remained static in the records since October 2022. This stagnation raises questions about whether the vehicle has been driven regularly, kept off the road, or simply not submitted for testing. Without subsequent mileage entries, assessing ongoing wear on consumables, suspension, and drivetrain components relies entirely on a physical inspection. A buyer must approach this vehicle as an unroadworthy prospect until proven otherwise. The absence of a current MOT and the nearly four-year testing gap necessitate a thorough structural and mechanical inspection. Check the sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points for corrosion, a common issue on older vehicles that stand for extended periods. Inspect the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion and binding, as calipers can seize when a car sits unused. Evaluate the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking and perishing, regardless of remaining tread depth, since rubber degrades with age. Verify the exhaust emissions and engine management systems, as prolonged standing can cause injector issues and sensor faults that trigger a failure.
