PORSCHE BOXSTER2013 · 3.4L PETROL

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of rubber-related component degradation. The most recent test in March 2026 at 30,440 miles flagged perishing and slight cracking on both front tyres. While the car consistently passes its inspections, the recurrence of tyrerelated issues across the last four years suggests the vehicle likely sits stationary for long periods, leading to age-related dry rot rather than simple mileage-based tread wear. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old Porsche, averaging approximately 2,342 miles per year. Between May 2022 and March 2026, the vehicle covered only 5,671 miles, indicating very infrequent use. This low-intensity profile typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it correlates directly with the issues noted in the MOT advisories. The clean 2024 test at 27,210 miles stands out as an outlier, representing a brief period of peak condition. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of all tyres and rubber components, as the MOT record shows a history of perishing in 2022, 2025, and 2026. Beyond the tyres, the low mileage necessitates a close look at the brake seals, hoses, and suspension bushes which can crack when not regularly flexed. The 2025 advisory of uneven wear on the rear tyres also suggests a potential alignment issue that warrants checking to ensure the suspension geometry remains within factory specifications. No structural corrosion or serious mechanical failures are noted in the history, indicating the primary risk remains the effects of age on stationary parts.
