2019 Ferrari 488 Pista S-A 3.9L Petrol · LC19 OCS

The vehicle presents a fully stable and improving maintenance trend, with no defects recorded across its entire MOT history. The most recent test on 28 April 2026 at just 83 miles returned a clean pass with zero advisories or failures, confirming the car remains in exceptional mechanical and structural condition. Every prior test tells the same story: a pass with no defects recorded on 1 March 2025 at 75 miles, 22 March 2024 at 68 miles, and 27 October 2022 at 67 miles. There is no evidence of recurring faults, corrosion, or component degradation at any point in the record. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 2019 vehicle now approaching seven years of age. Accumulating only 83 miles over roughly seven years equates to approximately 12 miles per year, with the bulk of that use concentrated between October 2022 and March 2025, where the car added just 8 miles across nearly two and a half years. The gap between the October 2022 test at 67 miles and the March 2024 test at 68 miles shows a single mile added over approximately 17 months, indicating prolonged stationary storage. Such ultra-low use raises no mechanical red flags, but it does warrant attention to components that deteriorate from age and inactivity rather than mileage. A buyer conducting an in-person inspection should focus on rubber and perishable components that degrade through static storage. Tyre sidewalls should be checked for dry rot and date codes, as the original factory-fit rubber on a 2019 car will be approaching or past its recommended service life regardless of tread depth. Brake discs and pads should be inspected for surface corrosion and binding calipers, since infrequent use can cause uneven pad deposits and seized sliding mechanisms. Suspension bushes, particularly on a high-performance car like the 488 Pista, should be examined for perishing from age. The exhaust system, fuel system, and coolant hoses also merit close scrutiny for deterioration caused by long periods of inactivity rather than wear from use. Despite the clean MOT record, a pre-purchase inspection by a Ferrari specialist remains advisable. The MOT confirms roadworthiness at stationary test points but cannot replicate the loads, temperatures, and stresses of dynamic driving on a car engineered for extreme performance. A thorough assessment of the drivetrain, gearbox, and electronic systems under real operating conditions will provide the confidence this calibre of vehicle demands before commitment.
