2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hemi SRT8 Auto 6.4L Petrol · OY62 OHT

The MOT certificate expired in September 2021, rendering the vehicle unroadworthy for nearly five years as of June 2026. While the maintenance history up to 2021 shows a stable mechanical condition with prompt rectification of defects, the extended period of inactivity introduces significant uncertainty regarding the current state of perishable components. The odometer has remained static at 81,131 miles since the last test, indicating the car has been in storage rather than active use. Prior to this hiatus, the vehicle covered roughly 11,000 miles per year between 2018 and 2021, a moderate rate for this model. This lack of recent usage suggests the owner likely garaged the car, though prolonged standing often causes more damage than regular driving due to fluid separation and tyre degradation. Historical records flag a leaking offside rear hydraulic brake calliper in September 2020 and a minor oil leak in 2019. Although the brake issue was resolved immediately, a potential buyer must thoroughly inspect the entire braking system for seized components or corroded discs resulting from five years of stagnation. The previously noted oil leak also warrants verification to ensure it has not expanded into a more serious seal failure during the downtime.
