2004 Porsche Boxster 2.7L Petrol · E15 ADN

The most recent MOT on 2025-05-23 showed the vehicle passed with two minor issues: rear inner brake discs worn but not excessively, and an offside front tyre showing slight damage or perishing. These findings align with a recurring pattern of tyre-related defects, particularly affecting rear and front tyres, which have been noted in multiple MOTs since 2022. A consistent trend of tyre degradation is evident, with rear tyres frequently flagged for cracking or perishing between 2022 and 2024. Front tyres also showed feathered wear in 2022, suggesting potential alignment or suspension issues. While the 2025 MOT did not repeat these tyre defects, the rear brake disc wear indicates ongoing mechanical stress. The 2022 failed MOT highlighted additional concerns, including non-functional headlamps and ineffective windscreen wipers, but subsequent passes suggest these were addressed. The vehicle’s mileage of 116,097 miles over 22 years equates to roughly 5,277 miles annually, which is low for its age. This could imply periods of inactivity or light use, which may contribute to tyre perishing and component stiffness. However, the low mileage does not necessarily indicate excessive wear on major systems, as the MOT history shows mostly minor or resolved issues. The primary risks involve tyre condition, brake disc wear, and electrical components like headlamps and wipers.
