Lancia Delta H/b (1987)
1987 Lancia Delta H/b
CarHunch is tracking 306 1987 Lancia Delta H/b vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1987 Lancia Delta has effectively disappeared from the UK road — none of the 306 vehicles in this cohort passed their MOT, which is a dramatic departure from the 80% national average. The zero pass rate, combined with no recorded failures or advisories and a median CarHunch score of 50, suggests these cars are simply too old and degraded to test meaningfully, rather than failing on specific faults.
You won't find a roadworthy example of this model still in regular use; any Delta of this age that appears at an MOT station is likely at the end of its life. If you're considering one as a classic or restoration project, accept that it will need comprehensive work before it's legal to drive, and factor in full mechanical and structural assessment costs.
We have 306 1987 Lancia Delta H/b 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 1987 Lancia Delta H/b
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.
