2012 Bentley Continental 6.0L Petrol · MX12 GYZ

The 2012 Bentley Continental presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in its last five MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-05-30 evaluation at 53,837 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the vehicle has been well cared for, with no significant wear or structural compromise evident in the recorded data. The mileage of 53,837 miles over 14 years equates to approximately 3,846 annual miles, a low figure that implies either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity. Notable gaps exist between the 2021-10-05 test (44,652 miles) and the 2022-10-04 test (49,349 miles), a 4,697-mile increase over 12 months, which may reflect a period of more active use. Subsequent tests show gradual accumulation, with 51,033 miles recorded in 2023 and 51,495 miles in 2024, suggesting a return to lighter usage. The sparse defect history does not reveal patterns of wear inconsistent with this mileage profile. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, for signs of age-related fatigue, as low mileage can mask wear from static storage. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or binding, while the exhaust system merits scrutiny for rust, common in older vehicles. Structural integrity is not flagged in the records, but a physical inspection is advised to confirm no hidden bodywork damage or underfloor corrosion has developed, especially given the vehicle’s age and mileage trends.
