2021 Aston Martin DBX 4.0L Petrol · HW70 BUF

The most recent MOT on 6 March 2026 was a pass at 17,660 mi, but the tester noted that engine covers and under‑trays were fitted, meaning some components could not be inspected. No recorded defects were found on that test or on the two earlier tests (30 April 2024 at 6,699 mi and 28 May 2025 at 13,763 mi). The pattern is therefore a clean, defect‑free record across three consecutive years. Because the MOT results have remained consistently clean, the vehicle’s condition trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. There is no evidence of emerging faults or recurring issues; the only change is the limited visibility on the latest test, which simply means the examiner could not look at a few hidden items. At roughly 3,500 mi per year, the DBX’s mileage is low for a five‑year‑old car. Light use can mean less wear on consumables such as brakes, tyres and suspension components, but it can also indicate long periods of inactivity. Prolonged idle time can allow seals to dry out, corrosion to develop in hidden under‑tray areas, and battery capacity to decline. The mileage figure alone does not tell whether the car has been gently driven or largely stored, so the implication for wear is ambiguous. For a buyer, the priority should be a visual and hands‑on inspection of the areas that were obscured by the engine covers at the last MOT.
