1961 Morris Minor 1.3L Petrol · 484 XWB

The Morris Minor passed its most recent MOT on 13 February 2024 at 35,002 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend and a roadworthy status at that time. The single clean test gives no evidence of worsening faults or recurring mechanical issues across the available history. The recorded mileage of 35,002 miles against a 1965-era build suggests an average of roughly 538 miles per year, reflecting very light use for a vehicle of this age. The February 2024 test matches the only logged mileage, so the record shows no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between entries. Sparse MOT data limits longitudinal analysis, but the low annual cover implies long standing periods rather than sustained wear on drivetrain or consumables. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity and corrosion on chassis rails, floor pans, and outriggers given the vehicle's age and likely storage cycles. The tester logged no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, yet rubber components and binding calipers degrade with time even at low mileage. Verify the 13 February 2024 pass remains current against today's date of 8 July 2026, as the test will soon lapse. Commission a physical inspection of coil springs and brake hydraulics before purchase, since MOT cleanliness does not certify long-term durability on a 65-year-old classic.
