2016 Porsche Cayenne 4.1L Diesel · GG02 YOU

Based on the official DVSA MOT records, the 2016 Porsche Cayenne presents a stable and generally sound mechanical picture. The most recent test, conducted on 18 September 2025 at 60,205 miles, resulted in a pass, though the tester flagged both front tyres as worn close to legal limits and worn on the edges. This is a minor consumable issue rather than a structural or mechanical concern, and the overall maintenance trend is stable, with no recurring serious defects. The vehicle has passed every recorded MOT, and the advisories have been limited to tyre wear and an intermittent child seat obstruction that prevented full inspection of the nearside rear adult belt in 2022 and 2023. The mileage pattern is consistent and unremarkable for a vehicle of this age. At roughly 6,020 miles per year, the Cayenne has been used lightly but regularly, with no evidence of long periods standing or sudden high-mileage accumulation. The recorded mileages climb steadily from 42,022 miles in December 2021 to 60,205 miles in September 2025, showing a typical annual increment. There are no gaps in the MOT history that would suggest the vehicle was off the road for extended periods, and the record is clean aside from the noted advisories. A buyer should inspect the front tyres in person, as the September 2025 advisory indicates uneven wear, which can point to alignment or suspension geometry issues. While the tyres passed, edge wear on both fronts suggests the tracking may be slightly out, or the previous owner did not rotate the tyres regularly. The nearside rear seat belt was not fully inspected in two consecutive tests due to a child seat being fitted, so a buyer should remove any child seat and verify the belt retracts and locks correctly. Beyond these points, the lack of structural or mechanical advisories across five tests is reassuring, but a pre-purchase inspection should still cover the suspension bushes, brake discs and pads, and underside for corrosion, as these are common wear items on a ten-year-old Cayenne.
