PORSCHE macan2017 · 3.6L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the recent MOT history indicates a sharp decline in maintenance standards. While the car passed its latest test on 7 May 2026 at 87,134 miles, it failed a test just one day prior at 86,956 miles. This failure revealed multiple critical issues including thin tyres, worn brake pads, and a coolant leak, suggesting that the previous owner neglected basic service items and repairs until forced by the MOT test failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. However, there is a significant gap in data between April 2025 at 63,350 miles and May 2026 at 86,956 miles, where the car covered over 23,000 miles in just thirteen months. This rapid acceleration in usage following a period of clean records in the previous years likely explains the sudden wear on the braking and tyre components noted in the 2026 inspection. A prospective buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the cooling system, as the coolant leak flagged in May 2026 often points to water pump or thermostat failures common in this model. The uneven wear noted on the edges of the front tyres suggests an underlying alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require professional rectification to prevent further tyre degradation. Furthermore, the thin front brake pads and failed rear tyres indicate that the vehicle is due for significant immediate expenditure on consumables, which should be factored into the purchase price.
