2017 Maserati Ghibli 3.0L Diesel · RO17 LRF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 46,687 miles. The maintenance trend is generally stable, though the record shows a recurring advisory regarding the rear suspension. The nearside rear shock absorber exhibited a light misting of oil in November 2024 and persisted into the November 2025 test, indicating that while the component has not yet progressed to a failure point, it is showing signs of seal degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,187 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over the years, moving from 25,361 miles in September 2021 to 46,687 miles in late 2025. This low-frequency usage often reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests suggests the car may sit for extended periods, which can lead to rubber-based components hardening over time despite the low mileage. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the nearside rear shock absorber to determine if the misting has become an active leak that requires immediate replacement. The 2024 advisory regarding undertrays perverting a full inspection warrants a closer look at the structural integrity of the chassis underbody, as these guards can sometimes mask early-stage corrosion or impact damage. Additionally, the 2021 advisory for uneven tyre wear suggests potential past alignment issues that should be verified against the current tyre condition to ensure the suspension geometry remains within of specification.
