AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Triumph has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 17,125 miles. The mileage anomalies and lack of verifiable usage make this a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 1,338 miles/year, with a 7-year gap (Oct 2017-Jan 2021) and a 3-year gap (Jan 2021-May 2024) where no MOT mileage was recorded, indicating severe unverified usage.

Things to check

  • Mileage of 30,014 miles is extremely low for a 24-year-old vehicle, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
  • A 7-year MOT gap (Oct 2017-Jan 2021) with no recorded mileage is a major red flag for unverified usage.
  • A 3-year MOT gap (Jan 2021-May 2024) with no recorded mileage further compounds the lack of verifiable history.
  • The 2002 Triumph is a 24-year-old vehicle with no recent MOT validity, indicating significant age-related wear.

Working in its favour

  • The single MOT failure in 2006 for a footrest and headlamp aim was immediately rectified.
  • The vehicle has a consistent, albeit very low, mileage history since its first MOT in 2006.
  • No recurring major mechanical failures are evident in the limited MOT history provided.
