2012 Ferrari 458 Italia 4.5L Petrol · 4 BCF

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 21 April 2026 at 26,379 miles where no defects were recorded. This clean result continues a stable and consistent maintenance trend over the last five years. The car has consistently passed inspections without advisories or failures, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained within operational parameters without significant neglect. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,884 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of minimal use between December 2023 and April 2024, where the car covered only 50 miles in four months. However, there was a notable uptick in usage between April 2024 and April 2026, covering 3,299 miles in those two years. This low annual mileage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of rubber degradation and seal drying during long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is flawless, a buyer must account for specific risks associated with low-mileage high-performance cars. Inspection should focus on the dry cracking of tyres and suspension bushings, which perish with age regardless of distance traveled. The brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often leads to rust buildup on rotors. Given the long intervals between use, a thorough check of fluid levels and condition is essential to ensure that internal components have not degraded while the vehicle sat stationary.
