Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers prioritizing reliability and low mileage, but consider the premium price and limited model data.
Prioritize checking the service history for regular maintenance, as luxury vehicles like the Rapide require meticulous care. Negotiate based on its low mileage and clean MOT record, but be prepared for a premium price. Inspect the VIN for any outstanding recalls or manufacturer notices. Be cautious of potential hidden costs due to the model’s lack of reliability data.
The 5.9L petrol engine offers poor fuel economy (estimated 15-20 mpg), leading to high fuel costs. Tax for 2019 models depends on CO2 emissions (likely in a high band). Insurance group is expected to be very high due to the car’s performance and value. Maintenance costs will be elevated, with parts and labor significantly exceeding average. Estimated annual running cost: £2,500-£3,500.
Focus on the tyres, as a 2022 MOT noted slight cracking. Check for oil leaks, transmission issues, and suspension wear, common in high-performance vehicles. Inspect the engine bay for signs of neglect or modifications. Verify that all service intervals were met using the service book or digital records.
This 2019 Aston Martin Rapide has a clean MOT history with no defects in the last three years, low mileage (10,797 miles) for its age, and a black exterior. A minor tyre issue in 2022 was resolved, but the lack of aggregate model data means potential buyers should verify service records and inspect for hidden issues.
No aggregate MOT data available for the Aston Martin Rapide, making it difficult to assess long-term reliability trends.

AI Analysis
Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: ASTON MARTIN RAPIDE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Window Motor & Regulator Failure(Moderate)
The frameless glass on the swan-wing doors is controlled by complex motors that often become sluggish or fail entirely.
- Rear Adaptive Damper Leaks(Serious)
The extra weight of the Rapide puts strain on the rear dampers. Leaks are common and replacements are very expensive.
- V12 Timing Cover Oil Leaks(Moderate)
The Rapide shares the DB9's V12 engine and is equally prone to timing cover oil leaks. The longer wheelbase and additional heat exposure can accelerate seal degradation.
