2014 FERRARI 4584.5L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend reveals a worsening condition regarding rubber components. While the car passed its most recent MOT on 9 June 2026 at 7,462 miles, the tester identified all four tyres as being heavily cracked. This follows a recurring issue noted during the 26 March 2025 test at 6,899 miles where tyre cracking was already flagged. Despite passing the inspection, the physical degradation of the tyres is accelerating. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging only roughly 622 miles per year. The record shows significant periods of inactivity, such as the twenty-two-month gap between February 2021 and December 2023, and the 70-mile interval between the October 2019 and February 2021 tests. This low usage suggests the mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain is minimal, but explains the age-related failure of the tyres, which dry out over time regardless of having ample tread depth. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of all rubber-based components because the MOT history indicates that the vehicle is failing due to standing rather than use. Beyond the immediate need for four new tyres, the recurring long periods of storage necessitate a thorough check of the suspension bushes, drive belts, and brake hoses for dry rot. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should also be inspected for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as high-performance brakes often suffer when not used regularly for extended periods.
