1996 Rolls Royce Silver Dawn 6.8L Petrol · P964 BJM

The 1996 Rolls Royce Silver Dawn presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no advisories or defects logged across its five most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 1 August 2022 at 64,825 miles returned a clean pass, confirming the vehicle held its test standard four years ago with no flagged mechanical or structural concerns. Recorded mileage shows exceptionally light use for a thirty-year-old motor car. The odometer moved from 58,213 miles at the 7 October 2016 test to 64,825 miles by August 2022, an average of roughly 1,100 miles per year across that span. A notable gap sits between the 31 October 2017 pass at 61,137 miles and the 26 November 2018 pass at 62,432 miles, where the test lapsed by over twelve months, yet no failure followed. Prior to 2016 the history is absent from this extract, so earlier wear patterns cannot be assessed from the supplied data. Given the clean MOT record, no recurring faults demand corrective action from the document alone. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as long standing periods between use accelerate perishing of rubber components and hidden structural rust on a vehicle of this age. Brake calipers may have seized through disuse; the tester recorded no binding, but fluid renewal and disc condition warrant verification. The low annual mileage implies careful or seasonal ownership rather than neglect of consumables, yet the 2022 test is now nearly four years old. A fresh MOT and physical appraisal remain essential before purchase, as statutory test data captures only the examination day and not intervening deterioration.
