1963 Alvis TD 21 3.0L Petrol · 1333 KV

The Alvis TD 21 passed its most recent MOT on 13 April 2024 at 16,222 miles with no defects recorded, placing its roadworthiness status as currently sound on the basis of official test data. The maintenance trend cannot be judged as stable, worsening, or improving from a single clean test, but the absence of advisories at this examination indicates no outstanding mechanical concerns were flagged by the tester. Recorded mileage stands at 16,222 miles against a 1963 build date, equating to roughly 257 miles per year over the vehicle's 63-year life. The MOT history supplied contains only the April 2024 entry, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests can be evidenced from the data provided. Such low annual use typically reflects limited road time, though extended standing periods can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop unseen. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and chassis condition given the car's age, focusing on outriggers, crossmembers, and body mountings for corrosion. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake hydraulics warrant hands-on checks despite the clean test, as a single MOT pass does not certify long-term component health on a six-decade-old vehicle. The lack of recorded advisories means no recurring fault pattern exists in the supplied record. Prospective owners should verify the odometer reading against heritage paperwork and confirm the 16,222 miles is genuine, as discrepancy at this mileage would materially alter the wear profile of the drivetrain and running gear.
