2013 Evanta DBR1 6.2L Petrol · 3 DBR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 at 3,361 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows improvement following a minor failure in May 2023, where the owner successfully addressed a headlamp aim, a missing fog lamp, and wheel spline play. The subsequent clean passes indicate that the vehicle is currently meeting the minimum safety standards without immediate mechanical requirements. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 259 miles per year. Data shows significant gaps between tests, such as the 836-mile interval between June 2022 and November 2024, suggesting the car sits stationary for extended periods. While this low mileage reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of inactivity often lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid deoxidation, and potential corrosion on brake discs and calipers due to lack of abrasive use. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension assembly, specifically checking the wheel bearings, CV joints, and axle splines. The May 2023 test flagged slight play in both the nearside and offside front wheel/splines, and while this was cleared in later tests, the recurring nature suggests a potential area for component fatigue. Given the extremely low usage, verify the tyres for age-related cracking and check the brake system for seizing or flat spots on the discs despite the low tread depth.
