Our Verdict
Proceed with confidence, provided a thor
When viewing this 911, focus your attention on the mechanical components rather than the MOT record, as the recent tests have been defect-free. Given the 3.5L engine displacement, ensure you ask for evidence of regular oil changes and interval servicing, which are critical for this model regardless of what the MOT shows.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at over 104,000 miles, you should check if major service items, such as timing components or suspension bushings, have been addressed recently. Look for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay, as these are common in high-mileage air-cooled or early water-cooled variants.
Running a 3500cc Porsche 911 involves significant costs. Expect high fuel consumption consistent with a large-capacity petrol engine, and insurance groups for this model are typically high due to performance and parts costs.
Maintenance costs will be higher than an average vehicle, particularly for tyres and brakes. While the MOT history hasn't flagged recent failures, the 2023 advisory regarding worn tyres suggests that rubber replacement is a recurring maintenance necessity for this car.
Pay close attention to the tyres; the 2023 MOT recorded 'Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge' across all tyres. Check the current tread depth and look for uneven wear which could indicate suspension or alignment issues.
Cross-reference the vehicle's condition against the model's aggregate failure trends. While this specific car has avoided them, common issues for this model include headlamps, exhaust components, and anti-roll bars. Inspect the underside for exhaust corrosion and ensure the headlamp units are clear and functional.
This 3.5L petrol Porsche 911 has covered 104,813 miles since its first registration in April 2003. The MOT history is notably clean, with the most recent three tests showing no defects recorded. While a tyre-related issue was noted in early 2023, the vehicle has maintained a consistent passing record through 2026.
The Porsche 911 maintains a high average MOT pass rate of 90.7% across the 56,470 vehicles analysed in our database.
