The 2010 Ferrari California has an MOT pass rate of 90.7% based on 2,833 tests โ€” well above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 22,095 miles on the odometer. With a 9.3% failure rate, the 2010 California is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.

If you own or are considering buying a 2010 Ferrari California, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to suspension: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks. With relatively low average mileage of 22,095 miles, many of these vehicles are still in good mechanical condition.

Suspension โ€” 0.5% of failures

Suspension issues account for 0.5% of MOT failures on 2010 Ferrari California models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: ยฃ200โ€“500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.

Visibility โ€” 0.3% of failures

Visibility issues account for 0.3% of MOT failures on 2010 Ferrari California models. Visibility failures relate to the windscreen, wipers, washers, mirrors, and view-obstructing damage. Cracks in the windscreen swept area, ineffective wipers, or empty washer bottles are common causes. Typical repair costs: ยฃ10โ€“300. Pre-MOT check: Check the windscreen for chips and cracks โ€” damage larger than 10mm in the driver's swept area or 40mm elsewhere will fail. Test washers and wipers. Ensure both door mirrors are intact and adjustable.

Tyres โ€” 0.2% of failures

Tyres issues account for 0.2% of MOT failures on 2010 Ferrari California models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: ยฃ50โ€“200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin โ€” if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
