2018 Royal Alloy GT 200 LC 0.2L Petrol · RO18 YUD

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, despite a curious failure in August 2022 that listed no specific defects. The most recent inspection on 4 March 2025 resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle is currently meeting all legal safety and emissions standards. The recorded mileage of 1,499 miles over eight years is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 187 miles per year. This usage profile suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods in storage. Mechanically, this means that while there is negligible wear on the engine and drivetrain, the vehicle is more susceptible to issues arising from inactivity rather than operational fatigue. In the absence of specific MOT advisories, the inspection should focus on components affected by long-term dormancy. During a test drive, feel for any binding in the brake calipers or a lack of responsiveness in the braking system, as stationary periods can lead to piston seizure. Listen for any abnormal knocks or vibrations from the drivetrain that could indicate degraded lubricants or perished seals. The unexplained failure from 2022 should be clarified, as the lack of recorded defects makes the cause of that result ambiguous. Check for any signs of corrosion on exposed metal surfaces and ensure the tyres are free from flat spots or sidewall cracking. Verify that the throttle response is linear and the idling is stable to confirm that the fuel system has not suffered from stagnation during its periods of inactivity.
