2012 Bentley Mulsanne 6.8L Petrol · JO11 KER

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following a period of electrical instability. The most recent test in July 2025 at 32,324 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the significant faults identified in the previous year have been rectified. While the 2024 failure highlighted specific electronic and lighting defects, the vehicle has since maintained a defect-free record over the last twelve months of operation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,300 miles per annum. There is a notable gap in usage between November 2021 at 29,936 miles and April 2024 at 30,744 miles, where the car covered fewer than 800 miles over over two years. This pattern of infrequent use suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components but increases the risk of rubber-based components degrading, seals drying, and brake corrosion due to long periods of standing. A buyer must verify the resolution of the electronic systems that caused the April 2024 failure. The inoperative engine malfunction indicator and the faulty supplementary restraint system warning lamp suggest deep-seated electrical issues or sensor failures that require diagnostic confirmation to ensure they do not recur. Additionally, the reduced intensity on both front headlamps indicates the units may have since been replaced or properly aligned. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should focus on tyre flat spots, seized brake calipers from inactivity, and the condition of suspension bushings which often affect vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods.
