2020 Bullit Hero 50 0.0L Petrol · LB70 CME

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-04-30—just 15 months ago—shows a stable but unusual pattern: two consecutive tests at identical mileage (5,901 miles) resulted in a single pass and a single fail, both with no recorded defects. This suggests either a technical error in the testing process or a deliberate retest without intervening maintenance. The absence of advisories or recurring faults in the 2024 cycle (tested at 1,128 miles) indicates no obvious mechanical degradation, though the abrupt jump in mileage between tests (from 1,128 to 5,901 miles) raises suspicion of odometer manipulation or a significant period of non-use. Without further context, the vehicle’s roadworthiness cannot be definitively confirmed beyond the last pass, but the lack of progressive wear indicators in the record is notable. The recorded mileage of 5,901 miles over six years—approximately 984 miles annually—is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age, particularly given the 2024 test at just 1,128 miles. This suggests either very light use or prolonged storage, which could accelerate certain forms of degradation, such as dried-out suspension bushes, seized wheel bearings, or degraded brake fluid. The sudden spike from 1,128 to 5,901 miles between tests in 2024 and 2025 is particularly concerning, as it implies either a reset or an unexplained accumulation of miles. Buyers should verify the odometer’s accuracy independently, as such discrepancies are often tied to tampering. Given the lack of recorded defects or advisories in the MOT history, the most critical areas for an in-person inspection would be the suspension components—particularly the bushes and coil springs—for signs of perished rubber or corrosion, and the wheel bearings for excessive play or binding. The brakes, while not flagged in the tests, should be checked for uneven wear, glazed pads, or warped discs, especially if the vehicle was stored for extended periods. Structural integrity, including the frame rails and subframe mounts, should also be scrutinised for corrosion or fatigue cracks, as low-mileage vehicles often hide hidden deterioration from neglect. The electrical system, including lights and indicators, should be tested in operation, as these are common failure points in older models.
