1974 Datsun 240Z 2.4L Petrol · KPW 615N

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection in February 2026 at 11,897 miles with no defects recorded. This reflects a clean bill of health following a period of minor mechanical adjustments. The transition from a failed test in 2014 to a consistent clean sheet suggests that the vehicle has been maintained maintained to a high standard during its most recent period of ownership. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a vehicle from 1974, averaging approximately 229 miles per year. There is a significant discrepancy in the data between August 2016 and August 2017, where the mileage jumped from 6,167 miles to 66,515 miles. This gap indicates either a period of intensive use or a potential odometer recording error that requires verification. Such low annual mileage often implies that mechanical wear is minimal, but it also increases risks regarding rubber degradation, seal drying, and fluid breakdown due to long stationary periods. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically focusing on the chassis points. The 2017 test identified corrosion on the offside front suspension component mounting area. While this was not considered excessive at the time, rust on vintage Japanese steel tends to progress rapidly if not treated properly. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check the brake lines and suspension bushings to ensure they have not perished or cracked from age, which is a common failure point for cars that sit infrequently.
