Use our detailed year-by-year breakdown and failure analysis below to understand how your specific 365 Gtc is likely to perform.
Lamps, Reflectors and Electrical Equipment — 20.8% of failures
Lamps, Reflectors and Electrical Equipment issues account for 20.8% of MOT failures on the Ferrari 365 Gtc. Lighting failures cover all external lights: headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, fog lights, and reflectors. A single blown bulb will cause an MOT fail. This is one of the most preventable failure categories. Typical repair costs: £5–50. Pre-MOT check: Walk around the car and check every light — headlights (dipped and main beam), side lights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, hazard lights, reverse light, rear fog light, and number plate lights. Replace any blown bulbs before the test.
Steering — 3.8% of failures
Steering issues account for 3.8% of MOT failures on the Ferrari 365 Gtc. Steering failures include excessive play in the steering wheel, leaking power steering fluid, worn track rod ends, and damaged steering rack. These affect vehicle control and are closely related to suspension wear. Typical repair costs: £150–600. Pre-MOT check: Check for excessive steering wheel play (more than a few inches of free movement). Listen for whining from the power steering pump. Look for fluid leaks under the car near the front wheels.
Road Wheels — 3.8% of failures
Road Wheels issues account for 3.8% of MOT failures on the Ferrari 365 Gtc. Wheel failures include cracked or severely corroded alloy wheels, missing or loose wheel nuts, and wheels that are insecurely attached. These are safety-critical and relatively rare compared to tyre failures. Typical repair costs: £100–400 per wheel. Pre-MOT check: Visually inspect wheels for cracks, especially around the spokes and rim. Check that all wheel nuts are present and tightened. Look for signs of impact damage on alloy wheels.
