2018 Aston Martin DBS 5.2L Petrol · A2 NXJ

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 21 July 2025 at 12,066 miles returned no defects or advisories. This streak indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has been kept in excellent condition, and the mechanical components have operated without failure across the recorded testing intervals. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,500 miles per annum. Between September 2021 and August 2022, the car covered only 538 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or seasonal use. There is a notable increase in usage observed between July 2024 and July 2025, where the vehicle clocked 3,153 miles in twelve months. While this reflects minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, the low annual mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluids due to lack of motion. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must inspect for specific issues associated with low-mileage performance cars. The physical inspection should check for flat spots on the tyres and surface corrosion on the brake discs, as infrequent use often leads to oxidation of the metal surfaces. The suspension bushes and rubber seals should be examined for cracking or perished, as age affects these regardless of the distance driven. Verifying the age of the battery and fluid changes is also critical, as the MOT does not assess the chemical integrity of these internal components.
