2013 Aston Martin Vantage 4.7L Petrol · B3 JAM

The most recent MOT, dated 23 May 2026, was passed with no recorded defects at 43,362 mi. This is the fifth consecutive annual MOT, each of which also passed, and the only advisory noted was in the 2023 test where the rear brake pads were reported as “wearing thin”. The brake‑pad comment in 2023 is the sole recurring mechanical note. It did not re‑appear in the 2024, 2025 or 2026 reports, which suggests the pads were likely replaced after the 2023 inspection. No other components have been flagged, so there is no evidence of a worsening trend; the vehicle’s MOT record appears stable. At 13 years old the car has logged just over 43,000 mi – roughly 3,300 mi per year – which is low for its age. This could mean the Vantage has been driven lightly, reducing wear on consumables such as brakes, suspension bushings and drivetrain parts. Conversely, low utilisation can also allow seals, rubber hoses and electronic components to age without the benefit of regular motion, so the mileage signal is ambiguous and should be treated with caution. For a buyer, the first things to inspect in person are: - The condition of the rear (and front) brake pads and discs, confirming that the thin‑pad issue has been resolved and that there is sufficient remaining thickness. - The suspension and steering components for any signs of corrosion, wear or looseness, especially given the car’s age.
