Should you buy a used Longjia Lj?

The Longjia Lj has an overall MOT pass rate of 73.7% across 4,153 real MOT tests — roughly in line with the UK average.

On the safety side, the most frequently flagged dangerous fault is tyre tread not clearly visible. Dangerous faults cause an immediate MOT failure and mean the vehicle is not roadworthy until repaired. If you're viewing a Longjia Lj with an expired or recently passed MOT, ask the seller whether any dangerous faults were found and fixed during the last test.

A typical Longjia Lj owner drives around 1,095 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres. If it's well below, the vehicle may have been sitting unused — check for perished rubber, corroded discs and stale fluids.

In terms of longevity, most Longjia Lj models stay on UK roads for around 14 years. If you're buying one that's already approaching that window, the data suggests it has plenty of life left provided it's been maintained.

Before committing to a purchase, we recommend running a full vehicle history check on the specific car. This will reveal any outstanding finance, stolen markers, write-off history and mileage discrepancies that the seller may not disclose — and that the MOT data alone can't tell you.
