2004 Maserati Quattroporte 4.2L Petrol · BU04 AWF

The vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 11 June 2026 at 57,230 miles which passed with no defects recorded. This reflects a consistent state of maintenance following a clean result in August 2024. The absence of advisories in the latest inspections suggests the car has been maintained to a standard that avoids the immediate mechanical or structural failures common in aging luxury touring. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,600 miles per year. There is a significant data gap in the records between May 2013 and August 2024, indicating the car likely sat stationary for long periods or was used sparingly during that decade. While low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain and engine components, long periods of inactivity can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts and fluid contamination. The single 2011 failure for a rear tyre worn to the legal limit is a minor consumable issue that does not indicate a broader pattern of neglect. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of components most susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and hydraulic seals, as these often become brittle or perish over time regardless of distance. Given the gaps in usage, inspect the brake system for binding calipers or corrosion on the discs and rotors. Ensure the structural integrity of the chassis is verified to confirm no hidden corrosion has developed during the periods of storage.
