2003 Triumph Daytona 0.6L Petrol · KS03 GVX

The most recent MOT on 4 April 2023 at 14 625 miles recorded a pass, with only a minor stop‑lamp illumination issue noted. No serious safety defects were flagged, and the pattern of results shows no escalation of faults; the vehicle appears to be maintaining a stable roadworthiness condition. Recorded mileage of 14 625 miles across 23 years yields an average of roughly 636 miles per annum, well below typical usage for a car of this age. Between the 9 March 2013 test at 12 290 miles and the 7 August 2019 test at 14 212 miles the increase was just 1 922 miles over six years, suggesting prolonged periods of light use or storage. No sudden mileage spikes are evident, and the sparse MOT entries align with a consistently low‑use profile. The history highlights three areas for a hands‑on check. The 5 April 2022 test noted front brake discs approaching wear limits, so the buyer should verify disc thickness and inspect caliper operation for any binding. The same test recorded a slightly loose drive chain, warranting a visual inspection of chain tension and sprocket condition. Rear tyre wear was flagged twice – graining in 2022 and near‑legal limit in 2012 – so tyre tread depth, sidewall integrity and uniformity should be confirmed. Finally, the stop‑lamp anomaly from 2023 suggests a possible wiring or bulb issue that merits a quick electrical check.
