Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean record in its most recent inspections. The latest MOT conducted in September 2025 at 43,440 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical concerns identified in earlier years have been addressed or resolved. The progression from minor faults to a completely clean pass suggests the car is currently being maintained to a high standard despite its age and low usage. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 32-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,358 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of inactivity between 2023 and 2024, where the car covered only 35 miles, from 42,862 to 42,897 miles. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, such infrequent use often risk the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and flat-spotting tyres due to long periods of standing. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the steering system and engine seals. The October 2023 test at 42,862 miles flagged slight play in the steering and an oil leak. While these did not cause a failure, they indicate potential wear in the steering rack or bushings and aging engine gaskets. A buyer must verify that the oil leak has not worsened and that the steering remains precise without excessive play, as these are common issues when vintage-luxury vehicles sit for long durations.
