1996 PORSCHE 9113.6L Petrol

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 87,805 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, mirroring the trend of perfection seen over the previous four years. This suggests a stable maintenance regime where the previous owner has proactively addressed minor mechanical or safety issues before they could result in a formal MOT failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a thirty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,900 miles per annum. Between 2021 and 2022, the car covered only 37 miles, indicating a period of storage or very minimal use. However, usage has increased slightly since 2022, with roughly 2,300 miles covered in the last three intervals. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and fluids which are not always captured in a standard MOT inspection. Despite the clean electronic record, a buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of components susceptible to age-related perishability. Priority should be placed on the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines, as these can perish or crack over time regardless of mileage. The braking system should also be checked for seized calipers or corrosion resulting from infrequent use. Furthermore, verifying the structural integrity of the chassis and floor pans is vital, as any hidden rust can develop in areas that the MOT tester may not reach during a routine inspection.
