2021 Maserati Ghibli Trofeo V8 Auto 3.8L Petrol · RK21 JRZ

The vehicle currently meets roadworthiness requirements, as the most recent MOT test in June 2026 passed at 22,928 miles without any recorded defects. However, the maintenance history reveals a clear downward trend in tyre condition, indicating that basic upkeep was likely skipped during ownership changes. The first MOT failure occurred on July 25, 2024, at 18,751 miles, while the second failed test was recorded on July 30, 2024, at 18,763 miles—both dates occurring within a single day of each other. This rapid accumulation of mileage between the two failures suggests that the owner may have been in a state of continuous, neglectful use rather than a period of stable maintenance. The mileage pattern shows that while the vehicle was tested at 22,928 miles in June 2026, the most recent failure occurred at 18,751 miles on July 25, 2024, and the second failure at 18,763 miles on July 30, 2024. These dates represent a gap of approximately 50 days between the two most recent assessments, which is unusually short for a vehicle failing twice in such a short timeframe. This rapid mileage increase relative to the date of the first failure indicates a lack of regular servicing or a shift in driving habits that accelerated wear on the drivetrain components. Given the failure of both tyres and the structural bulge in the offside front tyre, the vehicle presents significant mechanical risks. The specific faults identified include worn inner edges on both front tyres, a bulge in the offside front tyre caused by structural separation of the sidewall, and worn edges on both rear tyres. The presence of a bulge in the tyre structure suggests that the outer sidewall of the front tyre has failed, which could compromise the wheel's ability to absorb road shocks and potentially lead to further damage. Buyers must inspect the suspension bushings and coil springs for binding, as these components are highly susceptible to corrosion and wear that has accelerated in the recent history.
