Our Verdict
Proceed with specialist inspection befor
Given the rarity and cost of Lamborghini parts, any inspection should be carried out by a marque specialist rather than a generalist garage. Request full service history — Aventadors require major services every 12 months or roughly 5,000 miles, and a missed schedule can result in six-figure remedial work, particularly around the V12 clutch and valve gear. Check whether the car has been stored long-term, as Aventadors are known to suffer from clutch seizure, sticky components, and battery drain when left unused. Investigate the gap between the June 2025 retest and the April 2026 test — only 205 miles were covered in roughly 10 months, which may indicate limited use or storage.
Negotiation should account for the cost of a fresh major service, new tyres (often £2,000-£3,000 a set given the bespoke Pirelli fitments), and a clutch condition assessment — replacement clutches on Aventadors can exceed £10,000. Ask for any documentation relating to the V12 engine, gearbox behaviour, and the lifting system, which is a known weak point. Confirm provenance through Lamborghini dealer records where possible, and verify that any aftermarket modifications have not invalidated warranties or insurance terms.
Fuel economy for the 6.5-litre V12 Aventador is officially around 16-18 mpg combined, and realistically nearer 10-12 mpg in日常 use — expect fuel costs of £3,000-£4,500 annually depending on mileage. Road tax falls in the top band due to the £300,000+ original list price, costing £735 per year from year six onwards in the current VED structure. Insurance will be in the highest group, typically £3,000-£6,000 annually for comprehensive cover given the car's value and performance.
Routine maintenance is the dominant cost. Annual servicing at a Lamborghini specialist typically runs £2,500-£4,500, while major services including cambelt checks and fluid changes can exceed £7,000. Tyre replacement, given the staggered Pirelli P Zero fitments, costs £2,500-£3,500 per set. Allow a realistic annual running cost of £10,000-£15,000 even at modest mileage, with the caveat that any major mechanical intervention can push annual costs well beyond this.
The June 2025 MOT failure related only to a missing front registration plate — a trivial defect that suggests either a recent respray or bodywork removal, which is worth investigating. Inspect the front end for evidence of paintwork, panel replacement, or accident repair, and verify the VIN plate remains original and unaltered. Check the condition of the registration plate mounting and ensure the plate itself matches DVLA records for the KIG1 registration.
Beyond the MOT record, prioritise a specialist inspection of the V12's valve gear, timing chains, and cooling system. Examine the clutch for signs of slip or shudder — Aventador clutches are known to fail and are expensive to replace. Inspect the lifting hydraulic system, which can leak or fail, and check the carbon ceramic brake discs for corrosion if the car has been stored. Finally, verify the operation of all electronic systems including the infotainment, reverse camera, and rear wing deployment, as repair costs for these can be significant.
This 2014 Lamborghini Aventador in green has covered just 18,130 miles over 12 years, averaging around 1,500 miles annually. The MOT history shows four passes and one minor failure for a missing front registration plate in June 2025, which was rectified the same day. No advisory items or recurring defects appear in the record. The extremely low usage raises questions about whether the vehicle has been exercised regularly enough to keep seals, fluids, and mechanical components healthy.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Lamborghini Aventador to benchmark reliability, reflecting the model's rarity on UK roads. As an exotic V12 supercar, ownership costs and component complexity far exceed mainstream vehicles.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- ISR Clutch Wear and Calibration Issues(Serious)
The Aventador uses a single-clutch automated manual rather than a dual-clutch gearbox, so heavy traffic, repeated reversing, and poor calibration can accelerate clutch wear or make the car unpleasant to drive.
- Oil and Coolant Seepage (High Heat)(Moderate)
The massive V12 generates immense heat, which can eventually degrade rubber seals and plastic connectors in the cooling and oil systems.
- Nose-Lift and Front Suspension Hydraulic Leaks(Moderate)
The front lift system is extremely useful on UK roads but adds hydraulic complexity. Leaks or tired components can leave the car slow to raise, noisy, or sitting unevenly.
- ISR Gearbox Actuator Seal Failure(Serious)
The hydraulic actuators that control gear selection and clutch engagement in the ISR gearbox can develop leaking seals, leading to slow or incomplete shifts, hydraulic fluid loss, and eventually complete transmission failure. 2012 model year cars are particularly affected. The ISR can also jam in gear (commonly 5th) due to faulty solenoid packs, and some cars have been stranded unable to get into neutral.
- Electrical and Sensor Faults(Moderate)
The Aventador's complex electronics are prone to intermittent warning lights, sensor failures, and infotainment malfunctions. The parasitic battery drain is significant — the 12V battery can flatten in 1–2 weeks of sitting, which cascades into multiple false ECU errors and can prevent the ISR gearbox from shifting to neutral.
