2003 Ferrari 2 Door TIP Tronic Coupe 3.6L Petrol · YN03 ACV

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in March 2026 at 38,448 miles without any recorded defects. This stable result follows a period of mechanical concern in late 2022. While the car previously struggled with specific suspension and braking issues, the two most recent tests show a clean sheet, suggesting that the previously flagged mechanical faults were addressed and rectified by the owner. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 23-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,672 miles per year. The data shows significant periods of inactivity, such as the three-year gap between September 2019 and October 2022, where the car covered only 9,022 miles. This pattern of low-frequency use reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it often accelerates the degradation of rubber-based components, fluid seals, and tyre age, which is consistent with the recurring minor wear issues seen in the history. A buyer should prioritize a close inspection of the front suspension and steering geometry based on the failures recorded in 2022. The tester identified play in the lower suspension arm ball joints and the steering rack inner joints during that period. Although these passed subsequent tests, low-mileage vehicles often suffer from bushings drying out and cracking regardless of mileage. Additionally, the history of parking brake efficiency failures in 2014 and 2017 warrants a thorough check of the handbrake mechanism to ensure it has not seized or become unresponsive. The record also highlights a consistent trend of tyres reaching the legal limit, specifically noted in 2014, 2016, and 2023. Given the low annual mileage, the buyer must check for sidewall cracking and flat spotting rather than just tread depth. There are no reports of structural corrosion or exhaust failures in the record, which is a positive indicator for a chassis of this age.
