2015 Aston Martin Vantage 5.9L Petrol · DX65 WDY

This vehicle passed its most recent MOT in September 2025, but the report reveals a concerning and persistent mechanical pattern. The primary risk is systemic corrosion of the brake pipes. This issue has appeared in every MOT entry since 2022. Specifically, the reports repeatedly note that corroded pipes have been covered in grease or other materials. This suggests a pattern of masking the corrosion to pass the inspection rather than replacing the affected lines. The condition trend for the braking system is stable at best and worsening at worst, as the corrosion has spread from a single pipe in 2022 to multiple pipes across the nearside, offside, and central lines by 2025. The mileage is very low for an eleven-year-old car, averaging roughly 2,156 miles per year. This suggests the vehicle has spent long periods standing. This lack of use is supported by evidence of tyres cracking and perishing in the 2023 and 2024 reports, which is typical for vehicles that are not driven regularly. A buyer should first conduct a thorough physical inspection of all brake pipes to determine if they have been properly replaced or merely coated in grease.
