2013 Porsche Cayenne 3.0L Diesel · B28 MDW

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-05-30 at 112,161 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend following earlier failures. However, the 2024-05-22 test at 104,967 miles and the 2023-05-23 test at 94,385 miles both showed failures without recorded defects, suggesting potential inconsistencies in testing or unresolved issues. The absence of specific fault details in these failures limits definitive conclusions, but the return to a pass in 2025 implies corrective actions were taken. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging 8,628 miles annually. The 2024-06-04 test at 104,967 miles and the 2023-05-24 test at 94,385 miles show a 10,582-mile gap over 13 months, which is within normal parameters. However, the repeated failures at identical mileages in 2024 and 2023 raise questions about data accuracy or recurring minor faults not captured in the MOT records. The lack of consumable wear entries (e.g., tyres, wipers) suggests the previous owner prioritized basic maintenance. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the Cayenne’s weight and potential for wear. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, warrant inspection for binding or uneven wear, as failures without defect reports may indicate unresolved issues. Structural corrosion, though not flagged, should be assessed due to the model’s susceptibility to rust in high-moisture environments. The MOT history lacks detail on these areas, necessitating a physical examination by a qualified technician.
