2020 Ferrari 488 Pista S-A 3.9L Petrol · MC 21

The vehicle remains roadworthy with no defects recorded in its most recent 2025-09-10 MOT at 5,174 miles. All prior tests, including the 2024-08-22 and 2024-03-05 assessments at 4,508 and 4,499 miles respectively, also showed no issues. The maintenance trend is stable, with no emerging faults or recurring advisories. The absence of defects across three consecutive MOTs suggests the car has been well-maintained, though the low mileage raises questions about long-term component integrity. The vehicle’s mileage of 5,174 miles over six years equates to approximately 862 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. The MOT records show minimal mileage progression between tests, with only 9 miles separating the 2024-03-05 and 2024-08-22 assessments. This suggests the car may have been stored for extended periods, potentially leading to fluid degradation, battery drain, or electrical system issues. While no such problems are documented, the sparse usage pattern warrants scrutiny of components prone to inactivity-related wear. A physical inspection should focus on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers for dry rot or corrosion, as these can deteriorate during prolonged storage. The exhaust system’s structural integrity and the condition of the battery and electrical connections are also critical. Despite the clean MOT history, the low mileage implies the vehicle’s mechanical systems may not have been fully exercised, necessitating a thorough check of fluid levels, tyre pressure, and underbody corrosion to confirm its operational readiness.
