2020 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 S-A 3.0L Petrol · AJR 11

The vehicle is in excellent roadworthiness condition, with the most recent MOT passed on 17 February 2026 at 3,172 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a clean, consistent pattern of passing every annual test since 2023, with no advisories or failures across four consecutive inspections, indicating stable and well-maintained mechanical condition. The recorded mileage is exceptionally low for a six-year-old car, averaging just 529 miles per year. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows a minimal 56-mile increase over 12 months, followed by a 765-mile jump between February 2024 and February 2025, then another 350 miles in the final year. This irregular pattern suggests extended periods of inactivity, possibly storage or limited seasonal use, rather than regular driving. The absence of significant mileage accumulation reduces wear on brakes, suspension, and drivetrain components, but also increases the risk of fluid degradation, seal drying, and battery fatigue from prolonged non-use. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must inspect for signs of long-term storage damage. Check the condition of the tyres for flat-spotting or dry rot, verify the battery’s health and charging system function, and examine brake calipers and discs for surface corrosion or binding. Inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust hangers for signs of deterioration from lack of movement. Confirm the engine oil and coolant have been changed within the last two years, as these fluids can break down even without mileage. The absence of defects in the MOT does not eliminate the risk of latent issues caused by infrequent use. The car’s mechanical integrity appears sound, but its history points to a vehicle that has spent more time stationary than in motion. A thorough pre-purchase inspection focusing on fluids, seals, and components prone to degradation from inactivity is essential before proceeding.
