2018 MASERATI GHIBLI DV6 AUTO3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 1 August 2024 at 34,393 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and that the mechanical and structural components have not shown signs of immediate failure or significant degradation during the testing process. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,300 miles per year. Between the July 2022 test at 28,455 miles and the August 2024 test at 34,393 miles, the car covered less than 6,000 miles. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and brake components, the long intervals between tests sometimes indicate periods of inactivity, which can occasionally lead to dry rubber components, perished seals, or flat-spotted tyres that require attention despite the low mileage. Given the lack of recorded faults in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on the risks associated with low-mileage use. Priority should be given to checking the tyres for flat spotting and sidew cracking, as well as inspecting the brake fluid for moisture contamination from age. The buyer should also verify the suspension bushes and control arms for signs of cracking, as high-performance vehicles that sit for long periods can still suffer from age-related degradation of rubber components regardless of the distance driven.
