2018 Bentley Bentayga 4.0L Diesel · MIG 5

A recurring pattern of tyre integrity issues on the nearside defines the roadworthiness history of this vehicle, ranging from a sidewall cut in 2022 to a dangerous structural failure of the nearside rear tyre in 2024. While the record shows a consistent pass rate over the last six years, including the most recent test on 15 May 2026, the persistence of tyre-related advisories and failures represents the primary mechanical concern. With 74,044 miles recorded over approximately eight years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 9,256 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this class of luxury SUV. This level of accumulation indicates regular road use rather than prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive long-distance touring. Mechanically, this mileage suggests that wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems will be consistent with standard operational life, though consumables will be approaching typical replacement intervals. Prospective buyers should specifically examine the current condition of the tyres, as the nearside front was flagged as worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge during the May 2026 inspection. This specific wear pattern often indicates a requirement for wheel alignment or suggests wear in the steering and suspension linkages. During a test drive, the vehicle should be monitored for any steering pull or instability, and the tyre treads should be physically inspected for uneven wear across the width of the contact patch to ensure no underlying geometry issues persist.
