2009 Maserati Granturismo 4.7L Petrol · RX09 CFF

The overall roadworthiness status is currently failing, as the most recent MOT test on 2024-01-11 at 58,555 miles was a PASSED record. This indicates that the vehicle has not undergone a full maintenance cycle since the 2024 test and that the mechanical condition has deteriorated. While the 2024 test was passable, the subsequent failures in 2024 and 2023 suggest that the vehicle has experienced a worsening trend in mechanical condition over the past two years. The most recent failure on 2024-01-10 was a parking brake efficiency below requirements, which is a critical component that must be inspected in person. The mileage pattern shows a significant gap between the 2024 and 2023 tests, with a notable lack of data in 2023. This sparse record suggests that the vehicle has been maintained with a gap in its history, potentially leading to a lack of preventative maintenance during the intervening years. While the 2023 test was passable, the subsequent 2024 failure indicates that the vehicle has not maintained its mechanical integrity. The 2021-2023 period is characterized by rapid mileage accumulation, which is typical for older vehicles where wear on consumables like wiper blades and brake discs is more likely to accumulate quickly. To assess the vehicle's current state, the buyer should inspect the suspension and brakes in person. The 2024 test flagged a worn suspension arm pin and bush, which may lead to excessive movement and potential failure. The 2024 failure also highlighted a deteriorating parking brake, which is a serious structural risk requiring immediate attention. Additionally, the 2024 test noted a worn upper suspension arm inner front bush, which could contribute to a binding condition. The 2023 test revealed a defective windscreen wiper blade and a damaged dust cover on the track rod end, which could cause the vehicle to become unstable or fail to clear the windscreen effectively. These recurring faults indicate that the vehicle is in a state of risk, and the buyer must address these issues immediately to ensure continued roadworthiness.
