2012 FLEETWOOD STORM 28F 6.8L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection in April 2025 with no recorded defects. While a failure was noted on the same day during the initial test, the subsequent pass confirms that any identified issues were rectified immediately before the re-test. The lack of recorded advisories across the last two testing cycles indicates a consistent level of maintenance regarding primary safety components and structural integrity. The mileage profile is notably low for a vehicle from 2012, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between the April 2024 test at 54,177 miles and the April 2025 test at 55,372 miles, the motor covered only 1,195 miles. This' usage suggests the vehicle is likely stored for long periods or used only for short trips, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid chemistry rather than mechanical wear on the drivetrain. Because the MOT history is clean of documented mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on the effects of age and low-mileage. A buyer must specifically check for perished rubber in hoses, suspension bushes, and tyre sidewalls which can become brittle irrespective of tread. Given the low usage, the brake discs and calipers should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting to ensure the system has not seized during stationary periods. Additionally, checking the chassis for structural rust is essential, as age-related oxidation is the primary risk that persists even in low-use vehicles.
