Our Verdict
This is a solid option for a mid-range C
When inspecting this specific 3.4L Cayman, your primary focus should be the oil leak noted in the November 2024 MOT. While it was recorded as 'not excessive' at the time, you should verify if any remedial work was carried out between that test and the clean pass in May 2026. Ask for evidence of any gasket or seal replacements.
Beyond the oil leak, check the condition of the tyres. The 2022 MOT noted a nail in the offside rear tyre, so ensure the current set has healthy tread and no signs of uneven wear. Given the high-performance nature of this 3387cc engine, a thorough review of any service receipts is essential to confirm that oil changes have been performed regularly, despite what the MOT history alone can confirm.
Running a 2007 Cayman involves higher-than-average costs due to its large 3.4L petrol engine and performance positioning. Expect higher fuel consumption compared to standard hatchbacks, and insurance groups for this model tend to be substantial.
Maintenance costs for Porsche components, particularly brakes and specialised tyres, can be significant. While the MOT history shows few failures, the aggregate data for this model suggests tyres and exhausts are common areas of concern. Budget for an annual running cost in the mid-to-high range to cover fuel, tax, insurance, and preventative maintenance.
Direct your attention to the rear of the vehicle to inspect for any signs of fresh oil residue, following the advisory from the 2024 MOT. Even though the 2026 MOT passed with no defects, a visual check of the engine bay and underside is prudent to ensure the leak has not recurred.
Additionally, inspect the tyres and wheels. As the model aggregate data identifies tyres as a top failure reason, and this vehicle has a history of tyre-related issues (the 2022 nail), check for sidewall damage or ageing. Finally, listen for any exhaust irregularities, as this is a common failure point for this model across the wider dataset.
This grey 2007 Porsche Cayman (FJ07AZR) has covered 66,807 miles, which is notably lower than the aggregate model average of 3,361 miles per year. The MOT history shows a relatively clean record with only two recorded issues: a nail in a tyre in 2022 and a non-excessive rear oil leak in 2024. The most recent test in May 2026 showed no defects, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a functional state.
The Porsche Cayman shows a high average MOT pass rate of 91.6% across the 16,172 vehicles analysed, though tyres and exhausts remain common points of failure.
