2013 Porsche Cayenne 3.0L Diesel · DO04 ABY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass on April 2, 2026, at 121,267 miles. While the record shows a failure on March 17, 2026, at 121,001 miles, the lack of recorded defects for that entry suggests an administrative error or a re-test without noted faults rather than a mechanical failure. Since October 2023, the Cayenne has passed three consecutive tests without any recorded advisories or failures, indicating a consistent level of basic mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern aligns with typical expectations for a thirteen-year-old luxury SUV, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. Between October 2023 and February 2024, the vehicle covered 1,589 miles, followed by a more significant interval of 5,672 miles between February 2024 and March 2025. This rate of use suggests the car is driven regularly rather than sitting idle, which is generally beneficial for maintaining engine seals and rubber components that might otherwise dry out and crack during long periods of inactivity. Despite the clean MOT history, the buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of high-wear components common to this model. The record does not detail the state of the air suspension or control arm bushings, which are frequent failure points on the Cayenne at 120,000 miles. Pay close attention to any leaks around the shock absorbers and the thickness of the brake discs, as the MOT only tests for immediate safety-related defects. Given the age, verifying the structural integrity of the chassis for hidden corrosion remains a necessary step to ensure no significant issues have developed beyond the standard test parameters.
