PORSCHE CAYMAN2007 · 3.4L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 45,928 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable following a brief mechanical failure in late 2024 related to exhaust emissions. While the lambda sensor issue was resolved before the subsequent test, the most recent entry introduced a new advisory for a slight oil leak on the engine, which is a common occurrence on older engines of this specification but requires monitoring to ensure it does not escalate into a significant fault. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 45,928 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,417 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage between 2022 and 2025, with the car covering only 3,875 miles in that three-year period. This low frequency of use suggests that wear on the drivetrain and engine internals is minimal, but such low mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals. The long gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests indicates the vehicle sits for extended periods, which correlates with the issues noted below. An in-person inspection should focus on the suspension and braking system. The October 2022 test flagged significant corrosion across the anti-roll bars and linkages, alongside a worn rear suspension arm bush. Although these did not result in failures in later tests, low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perished rubber and dry-rot cracking. Furthermore, the 2022 report noted pitting and scoring on all four brake discs, a classic symptom of a car that remains stationary without regular use. A buyer must verify that the current discs have been replaced since then and that the calipers are not seized due to inactivity.
