2012 Ferrari 458 4.5L Petrol · SW61 TWG

The 2012 Ferrari 458 presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 20 January 2025 at 300 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend is stable across the two available entries. The January 2024 test at 240 miles also passed without advisories, showing no worsening or recurring mechanical faults in the official record. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. Between January 2024 and January 2025 the car covered only 60 miles, averaging roughly 21 miles per year across its life. Such limited use suggests long periods of storage rather than active daily driving. The DVSA history is sparse with just two tests logged, both clean, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps beyond the low annual use itself are evident. A buyer should still inspect in person for issues that MOT tests at near-standing mileage may not expose. Prolonged inactivity risks perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and seized brake calipers despite the absence of advisories. Check the condition of brake discs for corrosion and verify the exhaust emissions under cold start after storage. Given the clean record and minimal mileage, structural integrity and major mechanical risk appear low from the data supplied. Confirm fluid histories and evidence of climate-controlled storage, as these protect the drivetrain and suspension from degradation during the car's extended dormant periods.
