2013 Porsche Boxster 3.4L Petrol · BO55 VHB

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-21 shows the vehicle passed but recorded a worn nearside front lower suspension arm bush (5.3.4 (a) (i)), which is a minor defect. However, the same test also failed due to the same suspension issue and a headlamp aim too high (4.1.2 (a)). This suggests the suspension bush has not been repaired since at least 2023, and the headlamp problem is a new concern. The 2023 MOT noted corroded rear brake pipes (1.1.11 (c)), which were not addressed in subsequent tests. While these were not classified as safety-critical, corrosion in brake components can worsen over time, especially if the vehicle has been stored or driven infrequently. The 2025 and 2024 MOTs were clean, but the 2023 and 2026 results highlight recurring issues with suspension and braking systems. The vehicle’s mileage of 55,368 miles over 13 years equates to ~4,259 miles per year , which is low for its age. This could indicate light use or long periods of inactivity, which may contribute to issues like rubber component degradation or corrosion. However, the low mileage also suggests the drivetrain and engine may have experienced less wear than a higher-mileage vehicle. The trend shows stable but recurring issues .
