2009 Maserati Granturismo 4.7L Petrol · FJ59 GME

The Maserati GranTurismo presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 2 December 2025 at 51,676 miles with zero defects recorded. That result marks four consecutive flawless MOTs, a clear step up from the 2021 test where both rear tyres were flagged as worn close to legal limits. The shift from advisories to a fully clean record suggests the current keeper has addressed basic consumable upkeep and kept the car in sound mechanical order. The mileage profile tells a story of very light use. Across roughly seventeen years, the car has covered about 51,676 miles, averaging only around 3,040 miles per year. The MOT records confirm this pattern: between December 2021 and December 2025, the odometer moved just 653 miles over four years, with increments of 147 miles, 111 miles, 258 miles, and 138 miles at each successive test. Such low annual mileage can help preserve major mechanical components, but it also raises the risk of long stationary periods, which can affect tyre sidewalls, brake surface corrosion, seals, and fluid condition. Despite the clean recent record, a buyer should still inspect the underbody and suspension components carefully. Low-mileage, older grand tourers can develop surface corrosion on subframes, brake lines, and mounting points even without MOT failures. Check the condition and age of all four tyres, including sidewall cracking from age rather than wear, and verify that the nearside and offside rear tyres flagged in 2021 have been replaced with matching, correctly rated rubber. Examine the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or lipping, which can develop from short trips and standing. A live road test is essential. Listen for suspension bush wear over rough surfaces, feel for any binding or uneven drag from the rear brakes given the earlier tyre wear pattern, and monitor the drivetrain for clunks or harsh engagement that can surface on low-use cars. The clean MOT run is encouraging, but the combination of age, low mileage, and long potential standing periods means a hands-on mechanical and structural inspection remains the only reliable way to confirm long-term integrity.
