Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2009 Ferrari 430 Scuderia S-A has a clean MOT history, with all recent tests showing no defects. The most recent MOT on 2026-04-20 confirmed the vehicle passed with 22,065 miles, matching the recorded mileage. Previous tests from 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2020 also showed no defects, indicating consistent compliance with safety standards. The vehicle has not accumulated significant mileage for its age, with an average of around 1,298 miles per year over 17 years. This low mileage suggests either light use or extended periods of inactivity, which can lead to hidden issues like fluid degradation or component stiffness. The MOT records show no recurring mechanical patterns or escalating risks. The absence of defects in all checks implies the vehicle’s condition has remained stable over the past six years. However, the lack of mileage growth raises questions about long-term wear. Vehicles with low mileage may experience uneven wear on components not regularly stressed, such as suspension bushings, brakes, or the drivetrain. Conversely, consistent low use could reduce strain on consumables like tires and brakes.

Our Verdict

This 2009 Ferrari 430 Scuderia S-A presents a strong value proposition for enthusiasts, with a clean MOT history and low mileage for its age.

Verify the vehicle's service history to confirm consistent maintenance, particularly for the 4.3L V8 engine which requires regular oil changes. Negotiate based on its low mileage, but be prepared for premium pricing typical of Ferraris. Check for any discrepancies between odometer readings and MOT records, though no irregularities are evident here. Insist on a pre-purchase inspection by a Ferrari specialist to confirm mechanical integrity.

As a petrol-powered supercar, fuel economy is modest (estimated 18-22 mpg). Tax is £180 annually (2026 rates for 4.3L engines). Insurance groups for Ferraris are typically 40-50, with premiums exceeding £2,000/year. Maintenance costs are high, with services averaging £1,500+ and parts requiring specialist suppliers. Annual running costs could reach £6,000-£8,000 including depreciation.

Inspect for corrosion under the black paintwork, particularly around wheel arches and door sills. Check the engine bay for oil leaks or unusual wear on the 4.3L V8. Verify the transmission's smoothness during test drives. Review service records for any major repairs, as even minor issues can escalate quickly in high-performance vehicles. Confirm the VIN matches the chassis number to rule out accident damage.

The vehicle has maintained a consistent 22,000-mile reading across its last five MOTs, suggesting careful ownership. Its black paintwork and 4.3L V8 engine align with the model's performance heritage. While no aggregate reliability data exists, the absence of MOT defects since 2020 indicates reliable maintenance.

No aggregate MOT data exists for this specific model, but its consistent MOT compliance suggests responsible ownership.
