2012 Bentley Mulsanne 6.8L Petrol · KP05 LOV

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 30 June 2026, confirming its roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a singular failure recorded just two weeks prior to the pass. The failure on 16 June 2026 at 38,724 miles specifically identified a leak within the power steering rack or associated pipework. Since the vehicle passed the subsequent inspection without further advisories, it indicates that the hydraulic system was rectified to meet regulatory standards. The recorded mileage of 38,727 miles over a fourteen-year lifespan averages approximately 2,766 miles per annum, which is exceptionally low for a luxury saloon of this calibre. The history shows a consistent pattern of light usage, with the most significant jump in mileage occurring between May 2025 and June 2026, where the car covered over 9,000 miles. Prior to this, the vehicle saw minimal annual use, which often poses risks related to long-term storage, such as perished rubber seals, seized brake components, or degraded fluids. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the steering rack and high-pressure hydraulic lines to ensure the recent repair was performed to a high standard and remains leak-free. Given the low annual mileage, verify the condition of the suspension bushes and air suspension struts, as these components frequently deteriorate through age rather than wear. Check the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, which commonly manifest in vehicles that experience extended periods of inactivity. Confirm that the steering assistance remains smooth and free of noise, as the recent failure highlights a potential vulnerability in the steering architecture of this specific chassis.
