2006 Lml Star Deluxe

CarHunch analysed 132 real MOT records for the 2006 Lml Star Deluxe. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2006 LML Star Deluxe passes its MOT first time in 77.3% of cases, slightly below the UK average of 80%, suggesting these vehicles are marginally more prone to test failures than typical cars of this age. The 11.4% rate of dangerous defects is reassuring and well below concerning levels, though buyers should expect around 1.27 failures per test on average.

These cars typically show low mileage for their age (median 5,676 miles), which is unusually modest for a 2006 model and suggests many examples are lightly used. The high advisory count of 3.0 per vehicle indicates ongoing wear items that need monitoring, so budget for regular attention to minor issues rather than major structural problems—have any potential purchase inspected for brake and suspension components specifically, as these are the most common advisory triggers on vehicles of this era and mileage profile.

What to check before buying a 2006 Lml Star Deluxe

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.
