1977 TRIUMPH T140V0.8L PETROL

The most recent MOT for the 1977 Triumph T140V was recorded on 2015-04-28, with 4,814 miles logged. At that time, the vehicle passed with no defects noted. However, this test occurred over a decade ago, and no subsequent MOT entries are recorded. The last recorded failure was on 2014-04-25, when a nearside steering lock stop was missing (category 2.1.3), which is a minor defect. This suggests a single, non-critical issue that was likely addressed before the 2015 pass. The vehicle’s mileage of 4,814 miles over 49 years equates to roughly 98 miles per year, which is exceptionally low. This could indicate minimal use or extended periods of inactivity. Low mileage does not inherently correlate with mechanical health, as components like seals, gaskets, and fluids can degrade when a vehicle is not regularly driven. Without recent MOT data, it is unclear whether the vehicle’s condition has remained stable or deteriorated over the past 11 years. The MOT history shows no recurring or serious defects.
