The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 25 June 2025 at 23,231 miles returned no defects or advisories. This consistent history of clean passes suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in high-performance grand tourers of age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,450 miles per year. Between September 2021 and June 2025, the car covered only 588 miles, moving from 22,643 to 23,231 miles. This extremely low usage indicates the car has likely been stored for long periods. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it introduces risks related to fluid stagnation and the degradation of rubber-based components that MOT tests cannot detect. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage storage. The tester should verify that the suspension bushes and rubber seals have not perished or cracked, which often occurs when vehicles sit. Given the infrequent use, the brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion and the calipers tested to ensure they are not seized. Additionally, the age of the tyres should be verified against the tread depth, as rubber hardens over time regardless of mileage driven.
