2010 Caterham Roadsport 1.6L Petrol · JC07 CCC

The 2010 Caterham RoadSport presents a stable and clean roadworthiness status. The most recent DVSA test on 15 October 2025 at 8,770 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes across the available history. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally low use for a sixteen-year-old vehicle. The tester logged 2,424 miles in the 22 October 2021 test, then 5,062 miles on 13 October 2022, indicating roughly 2,600 miles added in that single year. From 2022 onwards the annual increments dropped sharply: 6,909 miles in September 2023, 7,866 miles in October 2024, and 8,770 miles in October 2025. The car averaged about 548 miles per year overall, with long standing periods likely between the 2021 and 2022 tests. No advisories or corrosion flags appear in any entry, so the record itself is sparse and clean. A buyer should still inspect the car in person for issues that MOT tests on low-mileage classics may not expose. Prolonged storage promotes perishing of rubber suspension bushes, degraded brake hoses, and surface corrosion on the tubular chassis despite the absence of recorded structural defects. The lack of advisories means no recurring mechanical trend exists, but standing fluids and seized calipers remain a risk on a car used this lightly. Verify the documented mileages against service stamps and V5C history. Confirm tyre sidewall dates, brake disc condition, and the integrity of the exhaust mounts before purchase, as these consumables degrade with age rather than distance.
