2012 Mclaren MP4-12C 3.8L Petrol · RX62 FLZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. While it passed the most recent test in February 2025 at 10,850 miles, this followed a significant failure just three days prior due to crumbling rear park brake pads and perishing tyres. The trend suggests that mechanical components and consumables are only being addressed when they fail an official inspection rather than being replaced during scheduled maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low, with the car covering 10,850 miles over a 14-year period, which averages to approximately 775 miles per year. The data shows long gaps of inactivity between September 2021 and February 2024, during which time the car covered fewer than 400 miles. This low-use pattern explains the recurring degradation of rubber-based components. The repeated failures for tyre perishing and sidew cracking in both 2024 and 2025 indicate that the materials are failing due to age and dry rot from standing stationary rather than tread wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of all rubber and fluid systems, as the record highlights a history of neglecting age-related items. The crumbling rear park brake pads noted in February 2025 suggest that the brake calipers or mechanisms may suffer from corrosion or disuse. The recurring failure of the windscreen washer system indicates a blocked pump or perished hoses that has been ignored for years. Given the low mileage, specific attention should be paid to the condition of suspension bushings, seals, and fluid integrity, which often degrade on high-performance vehicles that sit for extended periods.
