2004 Aston Martin DB9 5.9L Petrol · T4 SOT

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently clean MOT history across the last five tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 April 2026 at 41,463 miles returned no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable trend of perfect results. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,885 miles per year. Between October 2021 and April 2026, the car covered only 3,688 miles, indicating periods of infrequent use or long-term storage. The jump of 1,362 miles between April 2024 and April 2025 tests shows a slight recent increase in usage frequency. While low mileage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often introduces risks related to rubber-based parts and fluid degradation that an MOT test cannot fully capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age and stagnation rather than mileage-related wear. Given the lack of advisories regarding suspension bushes, springs, or brake calipers, a manual inspection must check for perished rubber or seized components caused by the vehicle sitting stationary. The brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles often suffer from rust on the braking surfaces. Structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the records, but a close look at underbody corrosion remains necessary for a vehicle of this era.
