Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Is the 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto reliable?

Based on MOT data from 249 vehicles, the 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto has a first-time MOT pass rate of 97.2%, indicating generally reliable for its class. Always check the full MOT history of any specific vehicle before buying.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2022 Bentley Bentayga V6 Hybrid Auto?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

This 2022 Bentayga V6 Hybrid is failing its MOT at a worrying rate: just 41.8% pass first time compared to the UK average of 80%, and none of the 249 vehicles analysed has shown a dangerous defect, but that poor pass rate is a serious red flag. At an average mileage of 20,498 miles for a two-year-old car, these are relatively low-mileage examples, which makes the failure rate even more concerning—these aren't worn-out vehicles struggling with age and distance.

The good news is that when things do go wrong, they're typically minor: just 0.02 failures and 0.1 advisories per vehicle on average. If you're considering one, get a full pre-purchase inspection by a Bentley-specialist garage, because the MOT data suggests these hybrids have early-life issues that need professional eyes before you commit.
