PORSCHE BOXSTER2001 · 3.2L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its latest MOT in September 2025 at 29,655 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of improvement following a significant failure in October 2024. While the car maintained clean records between 2022 and 2023, the 2024 failure indicated a lapse in preventative maintenance regarding rubber components which appears to have been addressed prior to the most recent test. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,186 miles per year. Between 2021 and 2024, the car covered only 1,537 miles, suggesting very infrequent use or that the vehicle sat stationary for long periods. Such usage patterns often lead to the degradation of rubber components due to age rather than mechanical wear from mileage. The record confirms this through the recurring deterioration deterioration of dust covers and CV boots despite the low distance travelled. A physical inspection must focus heavily on the front suspension and drivetrain. The nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint and its associated dust cover were flagged in 2021 and again in 2024, indicating a persistent issue with this corner of the assembly. The split nearside rear outer drive shaft CV boot noted in 2024 requires verification that the joint itself was inspected and has not suffered grease loss or grit ingress. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for brake corrosion on the discs and tyre sidewall cracking, which are common failure points for vehicles that remain stationary for extended durations.
