BENTLEY CONTINENTAL2009 · 6.0L PETROL

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in February 2026, but it now carries advisories for rear brake pads that are wearing thin and a nearside front tyre that is worn close to the legal limit. The recorded mileage is very low for a 17-year-old car, averaging roughly 2,832 miles per year. This suggests the vehicle has seen light use, but it also raises the possibility that the car has spent long periods standing, which can lead to different wear patterns than those seen in high-mileage vehicles. The overall condition trend has been remarkably stable, with three consecutive years of completely clean MOTs between 2023 and 2025. The return of advisories in the latest test indicates that the vehicle's consumables are now reaching the end of their service life. There is a recurring pattern regarding tyre health. In addition to the current wear, the 2021 MOT noted a damaged or perishing front tyre and a worn rear tyre. This suggests that tyre degradation is a repeating issue, which is common for vehicles that are driven infrequently. A buyer should first inspect the remaining tread on all tyres and the thickness of the rear brake pads to determine if immediate replacement is required. It is also important to check for any other perished rubber components or signs of stagnation consistent with low-mileage use.
