Ferrari 575m (2003)
2003 Ferrari 575m
CarHunch analysed 102 real MOT records for the 2003 Ferrari 575m. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2003 Ferrari 575M passes its MOT first time at 92.3%, well above the UK average of 80%, and dangerous defects are rare at 7.8% — a strong reliability signal for a 20-year-old supercar. These cars are clearly well-maintained by their owners, which isn't surprising given the cost of ownership.
Despite the excellent pass rate, the median mileage of just 22,045 miles suggests these are garage queens rather than daily drivers, so real-world durability under regular use remains untested. When failures do occur, they average 1.12 per vehicle, but advisories pile up at 3.3, pointing to age-related wear on trim, seals, and minor systems — so budget for cosmetic restoration even on a well-kept example.
What to check before buying a 2003 Ferrari 575m
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
