1987 PORSCHE 9442.5L Petrol

This 1987 Porsche 944 presents an exceptionally clean roadworthiness status, anchored by a completely fault-free pass on May 23, 2025, at 97,669 miles. The maintenance trend is remarkably stable and positive, evidenced by three consecutive clean passes extending back through June 2024 and June 2023. A single failure occurred on June 15, 2023, though no specific defects were recorded on the certificate, which typically indicates a procedural refusal or a minor administrative rectification before the successful retest eight days later. This sequence demonstrates diligent owner intervention and a vehicle that meets statutory roadworthiness standards without lingering mechanical grievances. With 97,669 recorded miles accumulated over roughly thirty-nine years, the vehicle averages about 2,504 miles annually, confirming a very low-usage profile. The available MOT data is exceptionally sparse regarding advisories, as the clean sheets from 2023 through 2025 list zero deterioration items. Such minimal mileage accumulation often reflects occasional weekend use or prolonged storage periods rather than steady, daily commuting. Low annual mileage on a classic sports car like the Porsche 944 requires careful physical scrutiny of rubber components, fuel lines, and seals that degrade more from age than friction. A prospective buyer must inspect the transaxle drivetrain, suspension bushings, and brake lines for perishing or fluid weeping stemming from long periods of inactivity. Structural integrity deserves close examination on a lift, particularly around the sills and chassis mounting points, to ensure corrosion has not formed unseen beneath underseal.
