2016 Bentley Continental 4.0L Petrol · E2 EAN

The vehicle presents a consistent roadworthiness profile, evidenced by five consecutive MOT passes without any recorded defects. The most recent test conducted on January 5 2026, returned a clean result, maintaining a stable trend dating back to February 2022. The lack of failures indicates that no immediate mechanical or structural defects have been flagged by the tester over the last four years. The recorded mileage of 16,541 miles for a ten-year-old vehicle represents an average annual of approximately 1,654 miles per year. This low usage pattern suggests the car has seen limited road time or has remained stationary for extended periods. While the data is clean of mileage-related failures, such low mileage on a luxury grand tourer leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid chemistry that is not captured during a standard MOT inspection. A prospective in-person inspection should focus on components prone to age-related decay rather than wear-related failure. Given the low mileage, the tyres require checking for dry rot and cracking, and the suspension bushes should be inspected for perishishing despite minimal use. The braking system should be examined for seized calipers or corrosion on discs, which frequently occurs when vehicles sit for long intervals. Additionally, the structural integrity and underbody should be verified to ensure that low usage has not masked moisture-related surface corrosion. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.
