2005 Aston Martin DB9 5.9L Petrol · MR51 CRC

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in June 2025, although this followed a failure caused by inoperative hazard warning lamps. There is a recurring pattern of electrical and lighting failures. The 2024 MOT failure was particularly significant, involving a cluster of non-functional rear lights, including the stop, indicator, fog, and registration lamps, alongside issues with mirror visibility. The overall condition trend appears stable. While the 2024 failure was extensive, the subsequent 2025 failure was limited to a single electrical fault, suggesting that the more severe issues were addressed. The mileage is very low for a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,062 miles per year. Such low usage often indicates long periods of standing, which can lead to the electrical gremlins and rubber component degradation evidenced by the previous brake cable damage and lighting failures. A buyer should first conduct a comprehensive check of all electrical systems and exterior lighting to ensure no intermittent faults remain. It is also critical to inspect the condition of all rubber seals and the handbrake cables to ensure that low usage has not led to perished materials or seized components.
