FERRARI 4882019 · 3.9L PETROL

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-06 showed the 2019 Ferrari 488 passed with no defects, recorded at 10,059 miles. This follows a 2024-10-14 MOT also passed at 9,787 miles and a 2023-10-11 MOT passed at 9,359 miles. The vehicle has remained compliant in recent years, but a 2023-10-02 MOT revealed critical issues: near-limit tyre wear on both rear tyres and a fractured offside front coil spring. These were addressed before the subsequent passes. The 2023 failure highlights a pattern of suspension and tyre-related risks. The coil spring fracture (5.3.1 (b) (i)) is a serious safety concern, as it could compromise handling and stability. The tyre wear (5.2.3 (e)) suggests potential neglect or uneven load distribution, though both issues were resolved by 2025. No further defects have been recorded since, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to meet standards. The mileage of 10,059 miles over seven years (1,437 miles annually) is unusually low. This may reflect light use or extended periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on rubber components, electrical systems, and fluids.
