1978 Porsche 911 3.0L Petrol · 928 POR

The vehicle presents a highly stable and exemplary maintenance trend, evidenced by five consecutive MOT passes with zero recorded defects. The most recent test on 8 April 2026 at 66,388 miles yielded a clean pass, confirming the car currently meets all roadworthiness standards. This unblemished record indicates meticulous upkeep and a proactive approach to mechanical servicing, with no recurring faults or advisories to suggest underlying deterioration. The mileage accumulation is remarkably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 1,383 miles per annum over its 48-year lifespan. Between the April 2022 test at 65,650 miles and the April 2026 test at 66,388 miles, the odometer advanced only 738 miles over four years. This pattern points to very light, occasional use rather than daily driving. A notable gap exists between the 2022 and 2023 tests, where the mileage increased by just 20 miles, suggesting the vehicle may have stood stationary for extended periods. Despite the flawless MOT history, prolonged stationary periods demand a thorough physical inspection. A buyer must scrutinize the structural integrity of the chassis and floor pans for corrosion, as moisture ingress often plagues vehicles that sit idle. The rubber suspension bushes, brake calipers, and tyre sidewalls require close examination; perished rubber and binding calipers are common consequences of infrequent use rather than high mileage. Inspecting the fuel system and coolant hoses for degradation is equally critical, as old fuel and stagnant fluids can cause significant engine running issues. The clean MOT record proves the car is currently roadworthy, but a specialist inspection will verify whether long-term storage has silently compromised perishable components.
