1984 Ford Granada 2.8L Petrol · B668 BVH

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass on 4 March 2025 at 10,933 miles. Although a failure occurred just two weeks prior on 20 February 2025 at 10,929 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative or transient sensor issue that was immediately rectified. The overall history shows a consistent trend of passing tests without any recurring mechanical or structural degradations. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 42-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 260 miles per year. Between July 2022 and March 2025, the car covered only 223 miles over a three-year period. This extremely low frequency of use indicates the vehicle is likely used only for fair-weather outings or has sat in dry storage for extended periods. While this reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, it increases specific risks associated with fluid degradation, seal shrinkage, and the perish of rubber components. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the structural integrity, as low-mileage cars from this era are frequently prone to hidden corrosion in the sills, floor pans, and mounting points. The MOT record does not flag brake issues, but long periods of inactivity often lead to seized calipers or perished brake lines due to lack of use. Specifically inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and check the tyres for sidewall rot, as the age of these components far exceeds the low recorded mileage recorded.
