2001 TVR CERBERA4.0L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a flawless MOT history over the last five years. The most recent test on 27 May 2025 at 42,703 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard, showing no recurring mechanical or structural failures that typically trigger MOT warnings on older machinery. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,700 miles annually. Between June 2021 and May 2025, the car covered only 592 miles, moving from 42,111 to 42,703 miles. This extremely low usage indicates the car is likely used seasonally or kept stationary for long periods. While this reduces the mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, it often introduces risks related to perished rubber-based parts and fluid degradation that an MOT test cannot fully capture. Despite the clean digital history, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection of components sensitive to age and lack of use. Pay close attention to the suspension bushes, bushings, and tyres for cracking or deformation, as these perish over time regardless of mileage. Check the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or seizing, which frequently occurs in vehicles that sit idle. Given the age of the TVR, a thorough check of the chassis for hidden structural rust remains essential, as the MOT record only confirms the absence of visible failures at the time of the test.
