2020 Bentley Continental Flying Spur W12 A 6.0L Petrol · W1 JPB

The Bentley presents with an excellent recent MOT record, having passed its last test on 23 December 2025 at 8,713 miles with no recorded defects. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes stretching back to May 2023, indicating a stable maintenance history with no recurring mechanical or structural failures flagged during the official examinations. The recorded mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old vehicle, totalling only 8,713 miles. This suggests either very light use or significant periods of inactivity. The most notable anomaly is the rapid accumulation of over 6,400 miles between the December 2024 test (2,267 miles) and the December 2025 test (8,713 miles), contrasted with the minimal increase in prior years. This sharp uptick in usage is a key detail for a prospective buyer to understand, as a vehicle that has been largely static can develop issues from lack of use, while the recent higher mileage may now be placing new demands on consumables. Despite the flawless MOT history, the low overall mileage and the recent surge in use warrant a focused physical inspection. A buyer should pay particular attention to areas affected by prolonged storage, such as checking tyres for flat-spotting or perished sidewalls, inspecting suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related deterioration rather than wear, and examining the brake system for caliper binding or disc corrosion from infrequent use. The sudden increase in annual mileage also means the drivetrain, including the W12 engine's timing chains and oil system, and the gearbox should be assessed for any latent issues that may not have yet manifested in an MOT test. A specialist inspection is strongly advised to verify the condition of these components beyond the pass certificate.
