2019 Bentley Continental GT 6.0L Petrol · IIL 2

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 June 2026 at 27,788 miles. The maintenance trend has shifted from a clean record to one showing neglect of consumables. While the car passed in June 2026, it did so only after an initial failure on the same day. The tester flagged a defective windscreen wiper and significant tyre degradation, including a structural lump in the nearside front tyre and perishing on both rear outer tyres. The mileage is exceptionally low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging under 4,000 miles per year. The distance covered between the November 2022 test at 16,234 miles and the July 2024 test at 20,820 miles shows a steady but light usage pattern. However, the low annual mileage likely contributed to the tyre perishing noted in the 2026 failure, as rubber compounds degrade over time even when the tread remains deep. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of all four tyres and the suspension geometry. The November 2022 advisory for heavy inner edge wear on the offside rear tyre suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that may not have been fully rectified. Given the recent failure due to tyre cracking and structural failure, the vehicle has likely spent long periods stationary. Check for signs of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers, which often occur in low-mileage luxury vehicles that are not driven regularly. Ensure the current tyres are not merely replacements for the failed units but are of a consistent age and brand. Verify that the wiper system is fully operational, as the June 2026 failure indicates a lapse in basic preventative maintenance.
