2014 Maserati Quattroporte 3.0L Diesel · FJ64 AJV

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2025-08-12 confirming compliance at 54,298 miles. Despite a failed test on 2025-08-11 (same mileage), no defects were recorded, suggesting the failure may relate to procedural or administrative factors rather than mechanical issues. Previous tests from 2023-08-04 (48,000 miles) and 2024-07-26 (53,112 miles) also showed no defects, indicating consistent maintenance. The absence of critical failures in these records implies the car has been well-maintained, though the recent failed test without explanation warrants further scrutiny. The mileage of 54,298 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 4,525 miles annually, which is below the average for a vehicle of this age. This suggests infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes and brake calipers due to lack of movement. A notable jump from 47,969 miles (2023-05-25) to 53,112 miles (2024-07-26) covers 5,143 miles in 14 months, followed by minimal accumulation to 54,298 miles by 2025. This pattern may indicate seasonal usage or storage, potentially affecting fluid systems and electrical components. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from stiffness or corrosion in these areas. The absence of brake-related defects in MOT records is reassuring, but binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear could still exist due to inactivity. Structural integrity should also be verified, as prolonged storage increases rust risk. The lack of advisories on tyres or exhaust emissions suggests these components are in acceptable condition, but physical checks are essential to confirm.
