2004 Lotus Exige 1.8L Petrol · V1 JWV

This 2013 Aston Martin Vanquish presents with a very low average annual mileage of approximately 2,382 miles, which suggests the vehicle has likely spent significant periods in storage or seen only occasional weekend use. While low mileage often implies less wear on the drivetrain, it can also lead to issues with rubber components, seals, and hoses that deteriorate due to age and inactivity rather than high-frequency road use. The MOT history is exceptionally clean for a vehicle of this age, with four consecutive years of defect-free passes leading up to the most recent inspection. This indicates a high standard of maintenance and suggests that the car has been well-cared for by its previous owners. The vehicle's condition trend appears stable and generally excellent, as there were no recurring mechanical failures or persistent advisory patterns noted in the years leading up to 2026. The most recent MOT from May 2026 marks a slight shift in the trend, as it is the first time in this history that advisories have been issued. The technician noted that the nearside front brake pads are wearing thin and that the brake hose ferrules are showing signs of corrosion. While these are common maintenance items, their appearance after a period of clean history suggests that the car is now reaching an age where age-related degradation of rubber and friction materials is beginning to take hold. The primary risk pattern here is not high-mileage wear, but rather the effects of long-term standing. Corrosion on brake hose ferrules is a classic indicator of a vehicle that may have been parked in a damp environment or left stationary for extended intervals.
