2013 Ferrari 458 4.5L Petrol · RR12 RAY

The vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, having passed every inspection for the past five years without a single recorded defect or advisory. This indicates a high standard of maintenance and suggests the car has been kept in excellent mechanical order by its previous owners. The trend is clearly stable and positive, as the lack of any recorded issues over consecutive years demonstrates that the vehicle is not suffering from recurring faults or deteriorating components. The consistency of these clean passes is a strong indicator of a well-cared-for example. With only 22,277 miles over thirteen years, the car has seen very light annual usage. While this low mileage is often desirable, it can sometimes lead to issues associated with long periods of standing, such as perished rubber seals, seized brake components, or degraded fluids. It is difficult to determine if the car was driven sparingly or left stationary for extended periods, so you should treat the low mileage as a sign that the car may require a thorough inspection of items that degrade with time rather than just distance. Because the MOT test does not cover the internal condition of the engine, transmission, or complex electronics, the clean history should not be mistaken for a comprehensive health check of the Ferrari's high-performance drivetrain. When inspecting the vehicle in person, you should first prioritise a check of the tyre date codes to ensure they have not hardened or cracked due to age, regardless of their tread depth. Secondly, verify the service history to confirm that fluids and belts have been changed based on time intervals rather than mileage, as this is critical for a vehicle that has been driven so infrequently.
