1980 Porsche 911 3.0L Petrol · FM 100

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 28 May 2025. At 153,643 miles, the Porsche passed with no defects or advisories, indicating a stable and effective mechanical condition at the time of inspection. The absence of any recorded faults suggests that the previous owner maintained the primary safety-critical components to a standard that meets current UK testing requirements. The recorded mileage of 153,643 miles over a 46-year span is remarkably low, averaging approximately 3,340 miles per annum. This low usage pattern suggests the car has likely been used as a seasonal vehicle rather than a daily driver. While low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain components and brakes, it often increases the risk of rubber degradation, fluid acidification, and corrosion from stationary periods. The gap between the current date and the last test indicates the vehicle has remained legal for road use over the last year. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and floor pans, as older air-cooled Porsches are prone to corrosion that MOT tests may not catch. Given the low mileage, specific attention is required for the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and hydraulic lines which can become brittle and crack over time regardless of distance traveled. Verify that the brake calipers are free of seizing and that the low usage frequency has not led to internal pitting within the braking system.
