MCLAREN ARTURA V6 PHEV S-A2022 · 3.0L Petrol

The McLaren Artura currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 15 January 2026 at 6,990 miles with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears resolving, following a failed test on 9 December 2025 at 6,927 miles. Notably, the December failure lists no recorded defects, which is highly anomalous for a registered fail. This discrepancy suggests either an administrative anomaly, an aborted test, or a dangerous defect rectified immediately prior to the retest. The subsequent clean pass in January confirms the vehicle met all structural and mechanical standards at that time. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for a vehicle approaching four years of age. Between the December 2025 and January 2026 tests, the odometer advanced by just 63 miles over a 37-day period, equating to an annualised rate of roughly 620 miles. The total recorded mileage of 6,990 miles translates to an average of approximately 1,748 miles per year since registration. Such minimal accumulation points to prolonged periods of standing rather than daily driving, which introduces its own specific mechanical risks despite the lack of wear-related advisories on the record. Prospective buyers must scrutinise the vehicle's standing history, as low mileage does not guarantee mechanical health. Long periods of inactivity can cause flat-spotting on tyres, deterioration of suspension bushes, and corrosion on brake discs. The hybrid battery system requires assessment to ensure the cells have not degraded due to prolonged states of low charge. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the underbody, the condition of the seals, and the operation of the V6 powertrain to verify that the lack of use has not caused ancillary components to seize or perish.
