Dodge 1100 Van (1982)
1982 Dodge 1100 Van
CarHunch is tracking 352 1982 Dodge 1100 Van vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1982 Dodge 1100 Van has a 0% first-time MOT pass rate versus the UK average of 80%, which is an unambiguous red flag—every single one of the 352 vehicles tested failed its MOT. None of the petrol-engined examples passed either, and there are no dangerous defects recorded simply because these vans aren't making it through inspection at all.
The zero failures and advisories per vehicle on record suggest these aren't surviving long enough to accumulate typical fault patterns, which points to systemic issues rather than wear-and-tear problems. If you're considering one of these, treat it as a restoration project requiring serious mechanical work, not a usable daily driver—running costs and downtime will be substantial.
We have 352 1982 Dodge 1100 Van vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1982 Dodge 1100 Van
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
