1988 Ferrari 328 3.2L Petrol · RT 100

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass in December 2024 at 7,685 miles. This test resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. The history shows a clean record following a minor failure in 2007, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained a consistent condition during its periods of operation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 200 miles per year over its 38-year life. A significant seventeen-year gap exists between the May 2007 test and the December 2024 test, during which the vehicle covered only 142 miles. This pattern suggests the car is kept in long-term storage rather than regular road use. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often introduces risks associated with the degradation of materials that do not age out through mechanical friction alone. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of rubber and fluid-based components that suffer from long periods of inactivity. The tester should check for perished suspension bushes, degraded coolant hoses, and brake lines, as these are prone to cracking despite the low mileage. Given the 2007 failure regarding insufficient washer fluid and headlamp aim, the electrical system and fluid pumps require verification to ensure no internal corrosion has occurred. Furthermore, the structural integrity of the chassis must be examined for any surface corrosion, as static vehicles in this era can develop hidden rust if not stored in a climate-controlled environment.
