2006 Porsche Cayman 3.4L Petrol · OO05 ELJ

The 2006 Porsche Cayman presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 May 2025 at 54,979 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 54,979 against a 20-year lifespan, an average of roughly 2,749 miles per year. The Cayman was tested at 47,094 miles on 26 September 2022, then 47,347 on 11 May 2023, 50,116 on 24 May 2024, and 54,979 on 5 May 2025. The gap between the September 2022 and May 2023 entries shows only 253 miles added in eight months, implying a period of limited use. Low annual accumulation like this often means long standing intervals, which can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop unseen. The DVSA log is sparse and clean, with no advisories or recorded faults beyond a failed then immediately retested pass on 26 September 2022 where no defect was listed. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the car's age and low-use pattern. Standing time raises the risk of seized handbrake mechanisms and flat-spotted tyres despite the clean MOT trail. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant close examination, particularly around subframes and sill seams. The absence of advisories across five tests suggests previous owners kept the Cayman to a basic pass standard, but the record alone cannot confirm hidden wear on drivetrain seals or intermittent electrical faults.
