Our Verdict
This 2018 Aston Martin Rapide is an enticing proposition for the enthusiast, showing a recent clean bill of health. While the V12 engine is a masterpiece, prospective buyers should budget for the significant maintenance requirements inherent to high-performance luxury vehicles.
When inspecting this Rapide, prioritise a comprehensive Aston Martin specialist service history. Ensure that all major scheduled services have been completed, as the 5.9-litre V12 engine requires precise maintenance to remain reliable. Check for any signs of electrical gremlins, as the complex infotainment and cabin systems can be costly to rectify if they fail.
Negotiate based on the condition of the consumables. While the MOT history shows recent wiper replacements, ensure the tyres are of a premium brand and have sufficient tread, as the Rapide is heavy on rubber. Verify that the gearbox shifts smoothly in both automatic and paddle-shift modes, as any hesitation could indicate a need for a transmission fluid flush or software update.

Common Problems: ASTON MARTIN RAPIDE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Window Motor & Regulator Failure(Moderate)
The frameless glass on the swan-wing doors is controlled by complex motors that often become sluggish or fail entirely.
- Rear Adaptive Damper Leaks(Serious)
The extra weight of the Rapide puts strain on the rear dampers. Leaks are common and replacements are very expensive.
- V12 Timing Cover Oil Leaks(Moderate)
The Rapide shares the DB9's V12 engine and is equally prone to timing cover oil leaks. The longer wheelbase and additional heat exposure can accelerate seal degradation.
