2018 Rolls Royce Wraith 6.6L Petrol · RR12 RAS

The Rolls-Royce WRAITH presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 11 July 2025 at 8,968 miles recording zero defects. This clean pass follows a period of minor tyre wear advisories in 2023, which appear to have been addressed promptly, indicating attentive ownership. The vehicle's mechanical condition, as evidenced by the DVSA record, is sound with no recurring faults or structural concerns flagged. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 2018 vehicle, averaging approximately 1,121 miles per year. Between 21 June 2021 at 4,064 miles and 8 June 2022 at 6,640 miles, the car covered 2,576 miles in a single year, suggesting a brief period of increased use. Subsequent years show a marked slowdown, with only 1,104 miles added between June 2024 and July 2025. Such low annual mileage raises the possibility of prolonged standing periods, which can lead to flat-spotted tyres, brake surface corrosion, and dried-out rubber seals despite the clean MOT record. Prospective buyers should focus their in-person inspection on components that suffer from infrequent use rather than high mileage wear. Check the tyre sidewalls for perishing or cracking, particularly on the nearside front and offside rear, which were flagged for edge wear in the 1 June 2023 test at 7,744 miles. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or binding, as low-mileage vehicles often develop uneven pad deposits from short trips. Inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, and verify that all electronic systems, including self-levelling air suspension if fitted, operate correctly after long periods of inactivity. The exhaust system and underbody should be checked for corrosion, especially if the vehicle has been stored in a damp environment.
