2017 Maserati Grancabrio 4.7L Petrol · YXE 31

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test in October 2024 at 26,926 miles recorded no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This lack of recorded faults suggests the vehicle has been kept in a condition that avoids the typical mechanical or structural degradation often seen in older luxury imports. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per annum. Between October 2022 at 19,671 miles and October 2024 at 26,926 miles, the car covered 7,255 miles, reflecting a pattern of infrequent use. While this low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, the long intervals between journeys can sometimes lead to secondary issues with rubber-based components, such as perished bushes, debotted tyres, or seized brake calipers, which are not always captured during a standard MOT test. Given the clean MOT record, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage storage. A buyer must check for cracking in tyre sidewalls and flat spots, as well as the condition of fluid seals which may have degraded over time. The suspension system should be scrutinized for signs of weeping or perished bushings, as low use does not prevent these materials from drying out. The structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the history, but verifying the convertible top mechanism for leaks or corrosion remains essential.
