2021 Maserati Ghibli Gransport L4 Mhev Auto 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · BV21 OTX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean pass in the January 2026 test at 76,586 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement after a period of neglect in early 2024. While the December 2025 failure involved only a minor nearside windscreen wiper, the subsequent pass without any defects in early 2026 indicates that the current owner is responding to immediate safety-critical requirements once they are identified. The mileage profile is high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging over 15,000 miles per year. A significant surge in usage is evident between March 2024 and March 2025, where the car covered 28,254 miles in just 12 months. This rapid accumulation suggests high-speed motorway use or consistent commuting, which typically places less strain on the engine than city driving but accelerates the wear on high-performance drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment components due to the faults recorded in March 2024, which showed front tyres wearing prematurely on the inside edges. This pattern often points to incorrect alignment, worn control arm bushes, or damaged ball joints. The previous failure for a structural bulge on the nearside front tyre also suggests the vehicle may have encountered significant impacts or curbs, necessitating a thorough visual check of the wheels and steering assembly for deformation or leaks. Given the high mileage and the history of tyre issues, a physical inspection of the brake discs and calipers is essential to ensure there is no uneven wear or binding. The recurring issue with the windscreen wiper across two different years suggests a reactive rather than proactive maintenance approach. Focus on the state of the tyres and the integrity of the underbody to ensure the high mileage has not resulted in hidden mechanical fatigue.
