Mechanical Assessment
The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test on 28 August 2025 at 42,662 miles resulted in a pass but introduced the first recorded mechanical concerns. The tester flagged both the nearside and offside front brake discs as being pitted or scored. While these were not considered weakened enough to fail, they indicate the onset of surface degradation that follows several years of clean records. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage sports car, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per year. Between 2021 and 2025, the vehicle covered 14,157 miles, with consistent intervals of roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles between annual tests. The regularity of the testing suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of neglect. However, the low annual mileage means the car may sit stationary for extended periods, which often contributes to the specific type of corrosion seen on the braking components recently. A buyer should focus on the front braking system during a physical inspection to address the surface scoring and pitting noted in the 2025 entry. Because the car has low mileage, it is also vital to inspect rubber-based components like suspension bushings for cracking, as age can degrade materials faster than mechanical wear does. The absence of structural defects in the history suggests the chassis remains sound, but the transition from clean records to minor disc wear marks a need for proactive preventative maintenance on moving parts.
