2017 Ferrari 488 3.9L Petrol · C8 SPB

The vehicle maintains a strong record of roadworthiness, with a consistent history of passing annual inspections without significant failures. The most recent MOT on 2 March 2026 at 14,213 miles resulted in a pass, though the tester identified tyre wear on the nearside front. This recurring focus on tyre condition, previously noted in the 2022 test, suggests that while the mechanical health of the drivetrain remains stable, the vehicle requires diligent monitoring of its high-performance rubber to ensure optimal handling and compliance. With an average annual usage of approximately 1,579 miles, the vehicle has clearly been used sparingly since its 2017 registration. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent, showing no evidence of long-term storage or sudden spikes in usage. The clean MOT reports from 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate a well-maintained example that has likely benefited from regular servicing alongside its annual testing cycle. This low-mileage profile is typical for this class of vehicle, though it places a premium on ensuring that rubber components and seals have not deteriorated due to age rather than heavy road use. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the front tyre tread depths and the condition of the sidewalls, given the history of minor tyre-related advisories. While the MOT records do not highlight issues with the suspension, braking system, or structural integrity, you should verify the service history for evidence of brake fluid changes and coolant flushes, as these are time-dependent maintenance items often overlooked in low-mileage cars. Examine the underside for any signs of surface corrosion or perished bushes that can occur when a vehicle remains stationary for extended periods between its annual tests.
