2001 Triumph TR6 2.5L Petrol · WRV 228K

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT status following a clean pass on 15 April 2025. This record indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the most recent inspection resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. The failure recorded on 11 April 2025 appears to be an administrative or procedural anomaly, given that the vehicle passed four days later without any mechanical rectification noted on the official certificate. The recorded mileage of 12,005 miles over a twenty-five-year lifespan suggests an average usage of approximately 480 miles per year. This extremely low mileage indicates the vehicle has spent significant periods in storage rather than active service. While the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical failures, the lack of consistent annual mileage necessitates a thorough assessment of rubber components, seals, and fuel system integrity, which often degrade faster through inactivity than through regular operation. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the chassis and floor pans, as long-term storage in suboptimal environments frequently masks structural corrosion in classic Triumph models. You must verify the condition of the brake hoses, suspension bushes, and cooling system hoses, as these items are prone to perishing over two decades of minimal use. While the MOT history is clean, it only confirms compliance with minimum safety standards at the time of testing and does not account for the current state of internal engine components or potential oil leaks that often develop after prolonged periods of standing.
