2013 Aston Martin DB9 5.9L Petrol · KV13 EWT

The 2013 Aston Martin DB9 stands as roadworthy on the strength of its most recent DVSA test conducted on 4 December 2025 at 48,486 miles, where the examiner recorded a pass with no defects. Across the supplied history the maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination from 31 January 2022 through to the December 2025 retest returning a clean result. No advisories or mechanical faults appear in the record, indicating consistent regulatory compliance. Mileage progression reflects light use for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The odometer read 40,586 miles at the 31 January 2022 test, rose to 43,129 by 15 February 2023, then 45,268 on 5 February 2024, and 47,874 on 10 February 2025. A further test on 4 December 2025 captured just 612 additional miles, bringing the total to 48,486. Annual averages sit near 2,500 miles between 2022 and 2025, well below the roughly 3,730 miles per year overall figure, and the sparse but unbroken pass record suggests the previous keeper adhered to test schedules while limiting road exposure. Such low accumulation often signals extended stationary periods. A clean MOT ledger does not remove the need for physical inspection. The buyer should scrutinise suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related degradation, and examine brake discs and calipers for corrosion or binding after prolonged inactivity. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity warrant a check for hidden rust, particularly on a low-mileage prestige chassis that may have spent months unused. Tyres may show sidewall perishing despite adequate tread, given the original fitment age. The absence of any failure or advisory across five consecutive tests implies the former owner addressed consumables before each examination and avoided neglect. Prospective purchaser should still commission a pre-purchase mechanical appraisal to confirm fluid conditions and drivetrain health beyond the scope of an MOT.
