1972 Simson Unknown 0.0L Petrol · TFS 131K

The most recent MOT on 14 November 2023 at 579 miles recorded a Pass, confirming that the vehicle satisfied the statutory roadworthiness criteria at that test. With a single entry showing no defects, the maintenance trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. Across a 54‑year lifespan the recorded mileage totals 579 miles, averaging roughly 11 miles per year. Such low utilisation suggests the car has spent considerable periods idle or has been driven only sparingly, and there is no evidence of any rapid mileage accumulation between recorded dates. The sparse data set contains no gaps that would indicate hidden high‑use periods. A prospective buyer should focus the inspection on age‑related wear rather than mileage‑related fatigue. Examine the chassis and bodywork for corrosion, particularly at suspension mounting points and under the floorpan. Verify the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or loss of resilience. Inspect brake discs and pads for scoring or uneven wear, and confirm that the handbrake operates without binding. Check tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, even though the tyres are likely to be original. Finally, assess the exhaust system for rust‑induced leaks and ensure the steering rack and steering column exhibit no excessive play.
