2018 Bentley Continental 6.0L Petrol · LO68 FDV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 16 March 2024 at 8,234 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from significant mechanical failures or structural degradation during the recorded inspection periods. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,029 miles per year. Between November 2021 at 6,801 miles and December 2022 at 7,487 miles, the car covered only 686 miles in over thirteen months. This low usage indicates the vehicle has likely spent significant periods in storage rather than use. While this limits the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts, fluid deconstruction, and seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components typically affected by low-mileage storage. The brakes should be checked for flat spots on the discs or seized calipers, which often occur when a vehicle is not driven regularly. The complex air suspension system common to this model requires close scrutiny for leaks or perished bushings, as rubber components dry out regardless of mileage. Additionally, the tyres should be inspected for age-related cracking or sidewalling, as the tread depth far exceeds the expected service life of the rubber.
