2017 Lifan Hongda Unknown 0.0L Petrol · HF67 CDZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy based on the most recent MOT pass on 12 August 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable as the record shows no recorded defects across multiple tests. A failure occurred on 11 August 2025, but the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor issue rectified immediately prior to the pass the following day. The mileage is exceptionally low for a nine year old vehicle. It covered only 163 miles between the May 2021 test at 68 miles and the August 2025 test at 231 miles. This average of roughly 26 miles per year indicates the car has spent the vast majority of its life stationary. Long periods of inactivity introduce specific mechanical risks that an MOT cannot always detect. A buyer must check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which crack over time regardless of mileage. The braking system requires a thorough inspection for binding calipers or pitted brake discs caused by moisture ingress during long periods of standing. The engine and drivetrain should be scrutinized for signs of oil degradation or fuel system gumming. Given the lack of usage, the battery health and the integrity of the exhaust system should be verified to ensure no internal corrosion has occurred while the vehicle remained idle.
