2004 Porsche 911 3.6L Petrol · C28 ERA

The most recent MOT test on April 7, 2026, confirms this Porsche 911 remains roadworthy with no defects recorded at 99,215 miles. The consistent pass history over the past two years—including January 2025 at 93,116 miles and January 2024 at 87,441 miles—indicates no recurring mechanical issues or advisories. While the absence of failures suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, the lack of any recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress components typical of this age and model. The recorded mileage of 99,215 miles over 22 years equates to approximately 4,510 miles annually, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this vintage. The intervals between tests—roughly 6,000 miles between January 2025 and April 2026, and similar gaps in prior years—suggest the car has seen minimal use, potentially indicating long periods of storage. This low mileage could mitigate some wear concerns, but it also raises questions about whether critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain seals have been properly serviced during inactive periods. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear subframe and bushings, which are common failure points on this model. The brakes, including caliper binding and disc thickness, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, especially if the vehicle has been stored for extended periods. Structural integrity, particularly around the sills, wheel arches, and underbody, warrants scrutiny for corrosion, as does the exhaust system for leaks or rust-induced failures. While the MOT history provides no red flags, these areas are inherently high-risk for a vehicle of this age and should not be overlooked.
