AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 Ferrari F12berlinetta presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 July 2026 at 1,583 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since at least 2022. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the five available MOT entries, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test scope during this period. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally light use for a ten-year-old vehicle. In the 29 June 2022 test the odometer read 1,278 miles; by 26 May 2023 it showed 1,324 miles, a gain of just 46 miles in eleven months. The car then covered 1,348 miles at the 24 June 2024 test and 1,553 miles by 31 July 2025, before reaching 1,583 miles on 7 July 2026. Annual accumulation averages roughly 158 miles, with the longest single-year increase of 205 miles between mid-2024 and mid-2025. The record is sparse in volume but entirely clean, showing no gaps in annual testing and no sudden mileage jumps that would suggest deferred or concealed use. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of components the MOT does not deeply assess. Prolonged low mileage and standing periods risk perished suspension bushes, degraded brake caliper seals, and flat-spotted tyres despite the absence of test advisories. The naturally aspirated V12 drivetrain and exhaust system should be checked for corrosion or fluid degradation linked to infrequent operation. Given the flawless test history, no recurring structural or mechanical defects require targeted follow-up from the record itself. Pre-purchase examination ought to focus on evidence of proper storage and fluid servicing rather than repair of flagged faults.

Our Verdict

This is a strongly recommended purchase for a high-performance vehicle, with a flawless MOT record across five consecutive years. The extremely low mileage for a 2016 car suggests careful, occasional use and excellent preservation.

Given the spotless MOT history with no failures or advisories, your main focus should be verifying the service history with a Ferrari main dealer or recognised specialist, as these cars require scheduled maintenance regardless of low mileage. Confirm the cambelt and fluid intervals have been observed even though the car has only done 1,583 miles, since time-based servicing is critical on a 2016 example. Negotiate on the basis of the exceptional condition and provenance rather than price reductions, as the clean MOT record and low use support a strong residual value.

As a 6,262cc petrol Ferrari, this car will sit in the highest VED band (over 255g/km CO2) costing £600+ per year in road tax, with insurance group 50 and premiums to match for a vehicle of this value and performance. Fuel economy will be poor in real-world use, likely under 15mpg, so even at 1,500 annual miles fuel could exceed £1,000. Estimated annual running cost including tax, insurance, fuel and routine maintenance is likely £8,000-£12,000 given specialist servicing requirements.

The MOT history shows no failure types to investigate, with every test from 2022-06-29 through 2026-07-07 recording zero defects, so no specific MOT-related faults apply. Nevertheless, inspect the bodywork and paint on this red example for stone chips given front-mounted radiator intakes on the F12, and check tyre condition as low-mileage cars can suffer age-related perishing. Verify the brakes and suspension have been exercised despite minimal use, and review the odometer consistency which shows a steady, believable climb from 1,278 to 1,583 miles.

The 2016 Ferrari F12berlinetta (YK16PBR) is a 6.3-litre V12 petrol coupé finished in red, first registered in March 2016. MOT history shows five straight passes from 2022 to 2026 with no defects recorded at any test, the most recent being on 2026-07-07 at just 1,583 miles. With only 305 miles added in the past year and a total of 1,583 miles in ten years, this example has covered far less than typical for its age.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Ferrari F12berlinetta, so assessment is limited to this vehicle's individual history.
