2018 AJS Modena 0.0L Petrol · WK18 AHV

This AJS Modena has maintained an exceptionally clean MOT record over its lifetime, with the most recent test on 10 November 2025 at 3,393 miles passing without any advisories or defects. The trend is stable—no recurring issues, no escalating wear, and no structural or mechanical concerns flagged in any of the five tests spanning nearly three years. The absence of even minor advisories (such as tyre tread or fluid levels) suggests either meticulous upkeep or, more likely, very light usage. For a vehicle of this age and mileage, this level of consistency is rare and implies either a single careful owner or a model particularly resistant to common wear points. The mileage progression is unusual for a car of this age, with just 3,393 miles recorded over roughly eight years—an average of 424 miles per year . The gap between the 2022 test at 328 miles and the 2023 test at 1,675 miles suggests a period of either storage or very infrequent use, followed by a brief increase in activity before settling back into minimal use. The 2024 and 2025 tests show almost no mileage accumulation (just 8 miles between March 2024 and November 2025 ), reinforcing the impression of either a secondary or leisure vehicle kept in near-pristine condition. Such low mileage reduces wear on consumables like brakes, tyres, and suspension, but it also means components may not have been exercised enough to reveal latent issues. Given the complete absence of defects or advisories, a buyer should still verify a few key areas in person. While the MOT history offers no red flags, the rear brakes —commonly prone to binding or corrosion in lightly used cars—should be checked for stiffness or uneven wear, as static conditions can accelerate caliper or pad deterioration. The suspension bushes and coil springs may show early signs of drying or cracking if the car has spent long periods stationary, particularly if stored in damp conditions. Structural integrity is less of a concern with this mileage, but a close inspection of wheel arches, sills, and exhaust mounting points for surface rust or corrosion would be prudent, given the low usage could mask hidden oxidation. Finally, while not MOT-tested, the engine bay fluids (brake, clutch, and coolant) should be inspected for degradation, as stagnant fluid can break down over time even without high mileage.
