2021 Honda ADV 750-M 0.7L Petrol · SL52 SSL

The most recent MOT test conducted on 3 March 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. Looking back through the history from February 2024 and February 2025, the vehicle has maintained a consistently clean record with zero advisories or failures. This indicates a stable maintenance trend and suggests that the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the emergence of typical wear and tear issues that often surface as a vehicle ages. The recorded mileage of 21,945 miles over approximately five years equates to an annual average of roughly 4,389 miles. This is considered low for this model, which is typically utilised for urban commuting. While low mileage generally implies reduced mechanical wear on the engine, transmission, and suspension components, it can also indicate periods of inactivity. Prospective buyers should consider whether the vehicle has been used for short trips, which can prevent the engine from reaching optimal operating temperature, or if it has spent significant time stationary. Given the absence of MOT defects, the physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than mechanical failure. It is essential to examine the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing or hairline cracking, as rubber compounds can harden and lose grip over time even if the tread depth remains legal. Additionally, the brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting, and the calipers checked for binding, which can occur when a vehicle is not used frequently. The health of the 12V battery should be verified, as low usage cycles often lead to premature battery failure. Finally, the buyer must verify the service history to ensure that maintenance has been performed according to the manufacturer's calendar intervals rather than solely on mileage. Brake fluid and engine oil degrade over time regardless of distance travelled, and a lack of timely fluid changes can lead to internal corrosion or reduced lubrication efficiency. A thorough check of the service book for stamps and invoices will confirm if the vehicle has received the necessary preventative care to offset the effects of its low annual usage.
