2019 Maserati Ghibli 3.0L Diesel · S1 RLV

The 2025‑07‑08 MOT at 54,359 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the Ghibli remains roadworthy as of the latest test. The consecutive failure on 2025‑07‑07 and successful re‑test the following day show a stable maintenance trend with no recurring mechanical faults documented. Mileage has risen from 28,336 miles in the March 2023 test to 54,359 miles by July 2025, an increase of roughly 26,000 miles over two years, or about 13,000 miles per year, which exceeds the typical 7,000‑mile annual average for a seven‑year‑old vehicle. The jump from 38,203 miles in April 2024 to 52,960 miles in June 2025 indicates rapid usage, while the one‑day gap between the July 2025 failure and pass suggests prompt remedial work. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or cracking, test the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and verify that tyre tread is even and within legal limits, as these components are the most common sources of failure in high‑mileage Ghiblis. Examine the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, especially around the front sills and rear rocker panels, and assess the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, since the record shows no documented defects but the elevated mileage and recent test failures imply these areas merit close verification.
