2018 Maserati Ghibli DV6 Auto 3.0L Diesel · AF67 BVH

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the limited available data. The most recent MOT test conducted on 6 January 2022 at 23,624 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. Because no tests have been logged for over four years, the current maintenance trend cannot be established as stable or improving. The lack of recent data creates a significant gap in understanding the mechanical state of components since the 2022 inspection. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,953 miles per year. The recorded 23,624 miles at the January 2022 test suggests the car has seen minimal use or remained stationary for extended periods. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to specific issues such as the degradation of rubber components, corrosion on brake discs from lack of use, and fluid breakdown, which are not always captured by a standard MOT test. A physical inspection must focus on the risks associated with high-age, low-mileage operation. The buyer should check for flat spots on tyres and seized brake calipers, which are common when vehicles sit for long months. The suspension system, specifically bushes and coil springs, should be examined for cracking or perish, as these materials age over time regardless of the distance driven. Given the four-year gap since the last official safety check, a comprehensive mechanical survey is essential to ensure no structural corrosion or fluid leaks have developed in the period of inactivity.
