Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Aston Martin Db11?

The 2022 Aston Martin DB11 is exceptionally reliable by MOT standards, with a first-time pass rate of 97.5% compared to the UK average of 80%—that's a significant margin in your favour. Dangerous defects are virtually non-existent at just 1.2%, so safety concerns are minimal for this cohort.

These DB11s are running very low mileage for their age, averaging 11,400 miles, which explains both the stellar pass rate and the minimal failure count of 0.05 per vehicle. With less than half an advisory per car on average, this is a well-maintained luxury sports car; when shopping, prioritise full service history and check whether the vehicle has seen regular use or has been sitting idle, as long storage periods can hide dormant issues on complex machinery.
