2009 Maserati Quattroporte 4.7L Petrol · RX09 CFD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a consistent pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in April 2025 at 43,863 miles passed, yet it carried over advisories for front tyres reaching the legal limit with uneven wear. While the car has passed its inspections, the recurring nature of tyre wear across the last four years suggests that the previous owner only addressed components once they approach failure or the legal threshold. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 43,863 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,580 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-interval usage, with only 850 miles recorded between the March 2024 and April 2025 tests. While this low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based components. Seals, hoses, and bushings often dry out and crack when a luxury vehicle sits for long periods regardless of the distance driven. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and the front-end geometry. The 2022 test flagged thin pads and pitted, scored discs, and the repeated reports of edge-worn tyres in 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that have not been rectified. Given the low mileage, the inspector should specifically check for brake caliper corrosion and structural rust on the chassis, as these are common in high-performance sedans that are not used frequently.
