2022 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS S-A 3.0L Petrol · 85 R

The most recent DVSA MOT, conducted on 19 December 2025, was passed with no recorded defects or advisories. With only a single MOT entry available, the absence of any failures suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard up to that date, and there is no evidence of a deteriorating condition in the recorded period. At 14,359 miles recorded in September 2026, the 2022 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS S‑A averages roughly 3,600 miles per annum, which is considerably below the typical usage pattern for a high‑performance sports car of this age. Such low annual mileage often indicates either limited weekend running or extended periods of storage. While reduced wear on consumables is a benefit, prolonged standing can accelerate rubber perishing, battery sulphation, and corrosion of brake components if the car has not been regularly driven. Prospective buyers should therefore inspect the tyre sidewalls for any signs of cracking, dry rot, or uneven tread wear that can develop even on low‑mileage tyres left idle for several years. Examine the 12‑volt battery for terminal corrosion, electrolyte level (if applicable), and perform a load test to confirm it retains sufficient cranking power; a battery that has sat for long periods may need replacement despite the low mileage. Check the brake discs and pads for surface rust, glazing, or uneven wear, as moisture can cause disc corrosion when a vehicle is stationary, potentially leading to binding calipers or reduced braking efficiency. Verify that the oil, coolant, and brake fluid have been changed in accordance with Porsche’s time‑based service intervals rather than mileage, as fluid degradation can occur regardless of how little the car has been driven. During a test drive, listen for any clunk or squeak from the suspension bushings, especially over bumps, which could indicate wear despite the low mileage. Observe the steering response for any play or vibration that might point to worn tie‑rod ends or wheel bearing issues. Watch for any exhaust smoke – a thin blue hue could signal oil burning, while excessive black smoke may denote a rich mixture. Finally, request the full service book and any dealer inspection reports to confirm that scheduled maintenance, including tyre rotations, brake fluid flushes, and software updates, have been performed on schedule. A clean service record combined with the visual and on‑road checks will give a comprehensive picture of the car’s mechanical health and its suitability for continued low‑mileage ownership.
