2009 Aston Martin DB9 5.9L Petrol · GN09 GFZ

This 2009 Aston Martin DB9 shows an average annual mileage of approximately 3,729 miles, which is significantly lower than the industry average for a vehicle of this age. While low mileage can suggest a pampered life, it often points to long periods of inactivity. In high-performance vehicles like this, extended storage can lead to seized components, perished rubber, and fluid degradation, which appears to be reflected in the recent MOT history. The vehicle’s condition trend is currently stable but shows signs of age-related maintenance requirements. After a clean pass in 2024, the most recent inspection in October 2025 noted perishing on the front tyres. This is a common symptom of a car that sits for long periods, as the rubber ages and degrades before the tread is worn down. The 2023 MOT was more concerning, highlighting issues with brake hoses, wheel bearings, and binding brakes, suggesting that the car may have been under-used or neglected for a period before that inspection. The recurring pattern here is one of minor, age-related deterioration rather than catastrophic failure. The fact that the car passed its most recent test with only minor tyre advisories is a positive sign, indicating that the more significant mechanical issues noted in 2023 were likely addressed. However, because the car is driven sparingly, you should not assume that a clean MOT pass equates to a vehicle that has been mechanically exercised or serviced to a high standard.
