2015 Maserati Granturismo — MOT failures & pass rate
Across 591 MOT tests, the 2015 Maserati Granturismo recorded an 87.3% pass rate. Coupes & convertibles of a similar age fail at 11.9%, so the 2015 Granturismo sits squarely on the average. Failures cluster in tyres, brakes and visibility.
What the MOT record shows
No single area dominates — tyres (5.4%) and brakes (3.2%) are close, so failures are spread across several systems rather than one weak point.
At component level the recurring items are coil spring, wipers and tread depth — coil spring alone was recorded 16 times.
Advisories point at the next bill rather than this one: tyres was flagged on 17.8% of tests without failing them.

What to check before buying a 2015 Granturismo
On a 2015 Granturismo, tyres is what the MOT record says goes wrong most — it appeared in 5.4% of tests. Check these areas before you commit.
- Tyres (5.4% of tests): Usually a quick, known-cost fix, but check tread, age and uneven wear (which can hint at alignment or suspension issues). Typical repair: £50–£120 per tyre.
- Brakes (3.2% of tests): Pads/discs are routine wear; binding, imbalance or corroded pipes are more serious — test for pulling under braking. Typical repair: £100–£350 per axle.
- Visibility (3.0% of tests): Wipers, washers, mirrors and screen damage — usually inexpensive, but check for chips in the driver's line of sight. Typical repair: £15–£150.
Repair costs are rough UK ballpark ranges to set expectations, not quotes — actual prices vary widely by car, parts and garage.
