2018 Aston Martin Vantage 4.0L Petrol · FD68 AEZ

The 2018 Aston Martin Vantage presents a stable and unblemished roadworthiness record. The most recent test on 9 October 2025 at 5,593 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The maintenance trend shows no worsening or recurring faults across the vehicle's history. The recorded mileage reflects exceptionally light use for an eight-year-old vehicle. From the first recorded test on 22 November 2021 at 2,839 miles, the car accumulated only 2,754 miles over the following four years, averaging roughly 699 miles per year. The largest annual gain occurred between November 2022 and November 2023, adding 622 miles. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the DVSA data; the sparse, clean record suggests the car has stood for long periods between short journeys. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low mileage combined with long standing invites degraded rubber components such as suspension bushes, perished hoses, and hardened tyres despite adequate tread. Brake discs and calipers may show surface corrosion or binding from disuse rather than wear. The absence of advisories on structural integrity, exhaust emissions, or coil springs across all tests implies no prior concern in those areas. Given the marque's performance drivetrain, a scrutinising check of fluid condition and clutch operation remains prudent given the intermittent running pattern.
