1928 Rolls Royce 20 3.1L Petrol · HW 1304

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last two decades. The most recent test conducted in September 2021 at 51,794 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This long-term trend suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance and a storage environment where mechanical components are kept in a condition that avoids typicalrelated failures during the DVSA inspection process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a vehicle of nearly 100 years, averaging approximately 529 miles per annum. Between July 2017 and September 2021, the car covered only 1,737 miles, which indicates very infrequent use, likely as a preserved collection piece. There is no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation; rather, the data shows a steady, incremental increase of often less than 500 to 1000 miles between annual tests. While this low usage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine internals, it increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and seals due to lack of operation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on items associated with long-term standing rather than mileage-related wear. While the record shows no structural rust or brake failures, the low usage necessitates a check of perished brake lines, cracked suspension bushings, and aged tyre compounds. Inspect the brake calipers for signs of seizing, as the lack of movement can lead to corrosion on the discs. Since the last recorded MOT was over five years ago, the current state of the fluids and the structural integrity of the chassis must be thoroughly verified before any significant road use.
