2021 Bentley Bentayga 4.0L Petrol · BV21 KHC

The 2021 Bentley Bentaya presents a stable and improving maintenance profile, culminating in a fully clean MOT pass on 8 June 2026 at 28,555 miles with zero defects recorded. The most recent test, conducted just ten days ago, confirms the vehicle currently meets all DVSA roadworthiness standards across brakes, suspension, emissions, and structural integrity. The only advisory in the entire history was a minor one, logged on 22 April 2026 at 28,279 miles, when the tester flagged rear brake pads wearing thin. That advisory has since been resolved, as the June 2026 pass recorded no further brake-related defects, indicating the rear pads were replaced between those two dates. This pattern suggests attentive upkeep rather than neglect. The mileage accumulation tells a consistent story of light use. The vehicle has covered approximately 9,086 miles in the two years between the April 2024 test at 19,469 miles and the June 2026 test at 28,555 miles, averaging roughly 4,500 miles annually in that window. This aligns with the overall lifetime average of around 5,711 miles per year across five years of ownership. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record that would raise concerns about clocking or prolonged inactivity. The annual test intervals are regular and well-spaced, with no missed years, which reflects responsible ownership. From a mechanical standpoint, the rear brake wear advisory at 28,279 miles is the only defect in the entire five-year record. On a vehicle of this weight and power, rear brake consumption is expected, and the fact that it was addressed promptly before the June retest is a positive sign. No suspension faults, corrosion advisories, exhaust emissions failures, or structural defects have ever appeared on the record. The clean April 2025 and April 2024 results at 24,235 and 19,469 miles respectively reinforce that this vehicle has been maintained to a high standard throughout its life. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection focused on the areas most likely to show wear on a low-mileage luxury SUV that may have spent extended periods stationary. Check the condition of all four tyres for flat-spotting and sidewall perishing, as infrequent use can cause rubber degradation even with adequate tread depth. Inspect the brake discs for lipping and surface corrosion, particularly at the rear, and examine the underbody and subframe for any early signs of corrosion that MOT testing at low annual mileage may not fully reveal. Given the otherwise impeccable record, this vehicle appears to have been well cared for, but a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the Bentayga platform remains prudent.
