2005 Bentley Continental Flying Spur 6.0L Petrol · LK05 YXV

The most recent MOT record is from July 2023, which means this vehicle is now significantly overdue for its annual test as of May 2026. The available MOT history is remarkably clean. Between 2020 and 2023, the car passed three consecutive tests with no defects recorded. This suggests a stable condition trend during that period with no recurring mechanical failures documented by the inspectors. The recorded mileage of 76,345 miles is very low for a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,635 miles per year. While this indicates minimal wear on the engine and drivetrain, such low usage often suggests the car has spent long periods standing. Low-mileage vehicles that sit idle are prone to specific risks, such as perishing rubber components, seized brake calipers, and degraded fluids. Because the MOT history is limited and now outdated, it is unclear if the vehicle has been maintained during its recent period of inactivity. A buyer should first verify why the vehicle has not been tested since 2023. In person, prioritize inspecting the brakes for seizure and checking all rubber hoses and tyres for cracking or perishing caused by age and lack of use.
