2012 Maserati Granturismo 4.2L Petrol · AL54 OTA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 18 June 2025 at 42,371 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just nine days prior at 42,328 miles. The lack of recorded defects on that specific failure entry suggests a potential administrative error or a technical re-test anomaly rather than a mechanical fault, as the subsequent pass was entirely clean. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per annum. The data shows consistent low-mileage intervals, moving from 31,310 miles in July 2022 to 42,371 miles by June 2025. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long periods of potential inactivity between tests can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and fluid seals. Given the clean nature of the MOT advisories, a buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of components prone to age-related failure rather than mileage-related wear. Check for cracks or perished rubber in the suspension bushings and signs of fluid leakage from seals, which often occur when vehicles sit for extended periods. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles frequently suffer from seized calipers. Ensure the structural integrity of the chassis remains free from hidden rust, confirming that the low mileage has not masked underlying environmental damage.
