2023 Ferrari 296 GTB S-A 3.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · 60 RCX

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GT presents a stable and reassuring mechanical profile, culminating in a clean pass on 12 May 2025 at 31,911 miles. The maintenance trend remains consistently positive, with no defects recorded across the entire documented MOT history. This indicates a vehicle that has been kept in sound operating condition, free from the recurring mechanical or structural faults that often plague high-performance models of this age. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging just over 3,100 miles annually. Between the February 2022 test at 20,333 miles and the February 2023 test at 24,115 miles, the car covered 3,782 miles. Usage then settled to a steady 3,275 miles over the following year, ending at 28,636 miles in May 2024. The most recent annual increment shows a slight dip to 3,275 miles by May 2025. This low-mileage pattern suggests light, sporadic use rather than long-distance touring, which typically spares drivetrain consumables but raises questions about the condition of perishable rubber components and brake surfaces due to prolonged standing. With zero advisories or failures recorded, no specific recurring mechanical defects demand immediate scrutiny. However, the low annual mileage warrants a focused physical inspection of components susceptible to deterioration from sitting rather than driving. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, as the tread may remain deep despite the rubber perishing. Brake discs and calipers require careful assessment for surface corrosion and potential binding, a common issue when high-performance vehicles sit unused for extended periods. Suspension bushes and exhaust flexi-joints should also be checked for perishing, ensuring the lack of mileage has not masked the natural degradation of rubber and flexible components over the last decade.
