1994 Bentley Brooklands 6.8L Petrol · B4 RXE

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of deferred repairs regarding non-critical components. The most recent test in July 2025 at 130,289 miles passed despite recurring oil leaks and corroded fuel pipes running from front to rear. While the car consistently passes its MOT, the persistence of the same fuel pipe corrosion and a damaged seat belt buckle over several years suggests a pattern of ownership that addresses only the minimum requirements for a legal certificate rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. At 32 years old, the recorded mileage of 130,289 miles represents a low average of approximately 4,000 miles per year. The data shows very infrequent usage between July 2022 and 2025, with the vehicle covering only 1,795 miles in that three-year period. This low mileage reduces mechanical wear on drivetrain components and brakes but often accelerates the degradation of rubber components and seals due to sitting, which is likely contributing to the ongoing fuel pipe corrosion and oil leaks noted throughout the record. A buyer must prioritize an inspection of the fuel system, as the pipe corrosion has been flagged every year since 2022 and poses a fire risk if not replaced. The minor exhaust leak noted in 2024 requires a close look to determine if it is a simple gasket failure or a more significant manifold issue that will eventually lead to emissions failures. Additionally, the damaged nearside front seat belt buckle and the park brake release lever noted in 2022 should be verified for functional integrity, as they have not been rectified despite multiple tests.
