2004 MASERATI COUPE4.2L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean-record trend over the last several years. The most recent test in June 2025 at 57,934 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a four-year streak of clean passes dating back 2021. This suggests that previous mechanical concerns, such as the suspension arm ball joint play identified in 2021, were addressed and the vehicle currently meets all standards. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-two-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,633 miles per year. Data shows consistent but low-intensity usage, with only 769 miles covered between the June 2024 and June 2025 tests. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between uses often lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts and fluids, which is not reflected in mileage figures alone. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres and suspension components, as the history reveals a recurring issue with them. Records from 2012 and 2014 highlight significant sidewall cracking, inner edge wear, and structural tyre bulges, indicating the car may suffer from dry rot or poor alignment when stationary. The 2014 failure regarding parking brake reserve travel also suggests the braking system requires close monitoring for seized calipers or cables that may have occurred despite the low mileage.
