1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 3.6L Petrol · KCZ 7

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably consistent maintenance record over the last several years. The most recent test conducted on 5 July 2025 at 116,905 miles resulted in a clean pass, mirroring the trend of clean passes across the previous four inspections. This suggests a stable maintenance regime where the mechanical and structural components have met the DVSA safety standards without recurring failures or advisory warnings. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally low usage for a 37-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,160 miles per annum. Between April 2018 and July 2025, the car covered only 4,238 miles, indicating it is used sparingly or stored for long periods. A notable gap exists between the 2019 and 2022 tests where only 1,082 miles were recorded, further supporting the low use profile. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often invites age-related degradation of rubber components and fluid seals that does not manifest through mileage alone. Despite the clean MOT history, a physical inspection must focus on components susceptible to age and corrosion in low-mileage classic vehicles. The buyer should scrutinise the chassis and structural integrity for hidden rust, particularly in the sills and floor pans, as MOT tests only inspect accessible areas. Rubber, hoses, and brake lines require checking for cracking or perish rot due to time. Additionally, the brake calipers should be tested for seized pistons or pitting, which frequently occurs when vehicles sit stationary for extended intervals.
