Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a high-
When inspecting this specific Macan, focus on the service history to ensure the 2,894cc engine has been maintained according to Porsche's strict intervals, especially given the higher-than-average mileage. Check for any signs of uneven tyre wear, as tyres are a common failure point for this model type across the wider dataset.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at over 66,000 miles, this vehicle has been driven more intensively than the typical Macan in our database. Ensure all electronic systems and the windscreen are in good order, noting that a previous advisory for windscreen damage was recorded in 2024.
Running a 2.9L petrol Macan involves significant outlays. Expect higher fuel consumption compared to smaller SUVs, and insurance groups for this model tend to be high due to performance capabilities.
Maintenance costs should be budgeted for premium parts and specialist labour. While the MOT history hasn't flagged immediate failures, the mileage suggests it is approaching service milestones that can be costly. Estimated annual running costs are moderately high.
Given the 2024 MOT advisory regarding windscreen damage, check the current glass for chips or cracks that could lead to future failures. Inspect the tyres thoroughly, as 'tyre' is one of the top failure reasons for this model aggregate.
Additionally, check the condition of the headlamps and wiper blades, as these are identified as common MOT failure points for the Macan. Because this vehicle has covered 66,402 miles, a thorough check of the brake components and suspension bushings is advised to ensure they remain within tolerance.
This 2021 Porsche Macan 2.9L petrol presents with 66,402 miles on the clock as of January 2026. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes, with the most recent test in early 2026 recording no defects. Notably, the vehicle has covered significantly more mileage than the aggregate model average of 7,278 miles per year.
The Macan shows a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 92.3%, suggesting generally high mechanical standards across the model range.
