About This Data
The 1967 Triumph Unclassified has an MOT pass rate of 85.8% based on 1,347 tests — well above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 20,755 miles on the odometer. With a 14.2% failure rate, the 1967 Unclassified is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 1967 Triumph Unclassified, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to body, chassis, structure: Inspect sills, wheel arches, door bottoms, and the chassis for rust. Surface rust is acceptable but structural corrosion or holes will fail. Check that all doors, bonnet, and boot close securely. With relatively low average mileage of 20,755 miles, many of these vehicles are still in good mechanical condition.
Body, chassis, structure — 0.1% of failures
Body, chassis, structure issues account for 0.1% of MOT failures on 1967 Triumph Unclassified models. Body and structure failures include excessive corrosion, sharp edges, loose panels, and damage to the vehicle frame. Rust is the primary concern, especially on older vehicles or those exposed to road salt. Typical repair costs: £100–500+. Pre-MOT check: Inspect sills, wheel arches, door bottoms, and the chassis for rust. Surface rust is acceptable but structural corrosion or holes will fail. Check that all doors, bonnet, and boot close securely.
Noise, emissions and leaks — 0.1% of failures
Noise, emissions and leaks issues account for 0.1% of MOT failures on 1967 Triumph Unclassified models. Emissions failures occur when exhaust gases exceed legal limits for carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), or particulate matter (diesel). Common causes include faulty oxygen sensors, clogged catalytic converters, or DPF issues on diesel vehicles. Typical repair costs: £100–1,000+. Pre-MOT check: If the engine management light is on, get it diagnosed before the MOT. For diesel cars, ensure the DPF has completed a regeneration cycle. Regular servicing and using premium fuel before the test can help.
Suspension — 0.1% of failures
Suspension issues account for 0.1% of MOT failures on 1967 Triumph Unclassified models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
