ASTON MARTIN VANQUISH2014 · 5.9L PETROL

Verdict for the 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish (25,544 mi) The most recent MOT on 2 December 2025 was a clean pass with no defects recorded at 25,544 mi. This shows the car was road‑legal at the time of the test and that any outstanding issues from the previous year have been resolved. The only serious defect recorded was on 6 December 2024, when the nearside rear brake cable was found damaged and the hand‑brake cable had snapped at the rear caliper, resulting in parking‑brake efficiency below 50 %. The vehicle subsequently passed a MOT on 7 December 2023 and again on 23 May 2022 with no defects, indicating that the brake‑cable problem was likely repaired before the 2024 failure was logged. There are no further repeat failures in the record, suggesting the issue was isolated rather than a recurring systemic fault. Overall the MOT trend is stable: three clean passes over the last four years, with a single failure that appears to have been remedied. There is no evidence of a worsening pattern in other systems such as emissions, lights, or structural components. Mileage is very low for a 12‑year‑old supercar – roughly 2,100 mi per year. This could mean the car has been driven lightly, which generally reduces wear on consumables, suspension bushings, and drivetrain components. Conversely, low annual mileage can also indicate long periods of storage, which may lead to corrosion, rubber ageing, or moisture‑related issues in the brake system and electronics.
