Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Average
This rating reflects historical MOT pass rates and recurring advisory wear patterns from official DVSA test logs. Note that roadworthiness does not verify outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen records.

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.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- Front lower wishbone bush and rear toe-link wearModerate
Front lower wishbone bushes and rear toe-link wear are common as mileage builds, revealing themselves as uneven inner-edge tyre wear, tramlining and knocks over bumps. The steering should feel tight with no dead-ahead nibble. Worn bushings also degrade the F12's celebrated front-end precision. Inspect the tyres for shoulder wear, listen for creaks over speed cushions, and have a specialist check the suspension geometry.
- Carbon-ceramic brake wear and replacement costModerate
Carbon-ceramic brakes are standard and durable on the road, but the pads are consumable and expensive, and discs can chip or show thermal spotting if abused. A full disc and pad replacement runs to a large five-figure sum at a Ferrari dealer. Measure the disc lips and inspect for cracks or chips, check pad thickness, and note any low-speed brake squeal, which is not always a fault.
- Corrosion around the rear wing ventsModerate
Corrosion around the rear wing vents is a known F12 issue, with paint bubbling at the steel-mesh-to-aluminium interfaces beneath the paint. Ferrari ran campaigns to treat and repaint affected cars under warranty, but out-of-warranty examples can need costly bodywork. Check the rear wings closely for bubbling under the paint and ask whether any corrosion repair or repaint has been carried out.
