Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on the service history, as low-mileage supercars still require interval-based maintenance regardless of distance covered. Verify that the tyre cracking noted in 2023 and 2024 has been addressed with fresh rubber, as this is a common issue for vehicles with low annual mileage where tyres age before they wear.
Ensure all records for the retractable hardtop mechanism are present. When negotiating, use the low mileage as a positive, but ensure that the lack of use has not led to any dormant battery or fluid issues.
Fuel economy for the 3,902cc V8 engine is low, and insurance will be in a high group. Annual road tax is based on the CO2 emissions for a June 2018 registration.
Maintenance costs for Ferraris are significant, particularly for scheduled services and specialised parts. Given the model's nature, owners should budget for high-cost consumables and professional specialist labour.
Check the current date and condition of the tyres, as the MOT history from 2023 and 2024 specifically flagged cracking on both front tyres. While the 2026 MOT was clean, it is important to verify the age of the current rubber to ensure safety.
Inspect the operation of the Spider's roof mechanism for smooth movement. Additionally, be mindful of the model's aggregate failure trends, such as windscreen wiper and washer components, which are common failure points across the 488 range.
This red 2018 Ferrari 488 Spider has recorded 9,114 miles as of its June 2026 MOT. It has passed all five of its recorded MOT tests, showing a pattern of very low annual usage. The vehicle's data aligns with the high overall pass rate for this model.
The 488 Spider has a strong reliability reputation with an average MOT pass rate of 92.8% across analysed vehicles.
