LAMBORGHINI DIABLO1997 · 5.7L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, as a series of mechanical advisories from late 2024 have seemingly been addressed prior to the latest test. This suggests that the owner is proactive in rectifying wear and tear issues once they are identified during the DVSA testing process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a vehicle of 29 years' age, averaging approximately 1,010 miles per year. The data shows significant gaps in usage, with the car covering only 113 miles between October 2024 and September 2025. While this low mileage indicates minimal strain on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of stationary time can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and fluids which age according to time rather than distance-driven friction. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and steering systems, as the 2024 test highlighted play in the front anti-roll bar ball joints and a worn rear bush. Although these were cleared in the latest result, the previous damage to the front steering rack gaiter necessitates a close look for any fluid leaks or further perished rubber. Furthermore, the central rear oil leak noted in 2024 should be monitored to ensure it has not returned or worsened, as seals in high-performance mid-engine cars often require specialist attention to resolve effectively.
