PORSCHE 9112004 · 3.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable, broadly satisfactory roadworthiness profile as of the most recent test on 24 April 2026, where it passed at 37,621 miles with no dangerous or major failures. The maintenance trend is essentially stable, with no escalating mechanical defects, though several minor advisories have persisted across consecutive years. The tester noted front and rear brake discs worn, pitted or scored but not seriously weakened, alongside a deteriorated front registration plate and a damaged front lower bumper. These are low-severity items that have been monitored rather than rectified, suggesting the car has been kept in running order without cosmetic or non-urgent remedial work. At roughly 1,710 miles per year over twenty-two years, the mileage is exceptionally low for a 2004 Porsche 911. The record shows minimal annual accumulation, with only 17 miles added between April 2025 and April 2026, and 291 miles between April 2024 and April 2025. Such light use can preserve mechanical components but also raises the question of prolonged standing, which may affect tyre age, seal condition, and fluid integrity. There are no anomalous jumps or gaps in the odometer readings, so the mileage progression appears consistent and credible. A buyer should inspect the front and rear brake discs closely, as surface corrosion and pitting have been flagged repeatedly since 2025 without replacement. Binding calipers or uneven pad wear could accompany this condition even if not formally recorded. The front lower bumper damage noted in 2025 and 2026 warrants a check for underlying impact damage to crash structures or mounting points. The cracked registration plate is cosmetic but should be replaced to remain compliant. Beyond the recorded advisories, a pre-purchase inspection should focus on suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust condition, as low-mileage cars of this age can suffer from perished rubber and corroded components due to inactivity rather than use. The seat belt webbing fraying noted in 2023 should be verified as repaired, and the insecure battery from 2024 should be checked for secure mounting and terminal condition. Overall, the MOT history indicates a mechanically sound car with minor, persistent cosmetic and consumable issues rather than any serious structural or mechanical risk.
