2017 Porsche Macan 3.0L Petrol · RA17 OGH

This 2017 Porsche Macan presents a stable and currently sound roadworthiness trend, anchored by a clean pass just six days ago on 9 June 2026 at 55,847 miles with zero defects or advisories recorded. The vehicle has passed every MOT test on the first attempt across its entire history, indicating consistent mechanical fitness. The maintenance trajectory shows a clear improvement from 2024 onwards, moving past earlier advisory warnings to a completely clean bill of health in the two most recent tests. The mileage pattern is consistent and well-distributed, averaging roughly 6,200 miles annually over nine years. The car accumulated approximately 5,600 miles between the May 2022 test at 43,864 miles and the May 2023 test at 49,262 miles, followed by another 2,800 miles by June 2024. Usage then slowed slightly, with just 2,000 miles covered between June 2024 and June 2025, and only 1,600 miles added in the year leading up to the most recent test in June 2026. There are no gaps in the annual testing schedule and no sudden spikes in mileage, ruling out any periods of heavy wear or long-term standing. The historical record is dominated by recurring tyre wear advisories, which point directly to previous owner driving habits and maintenance standards. The May 2023 test at 49,262 miles flagged all three checked tyres for wearing very low on central tread and edges, a classic symptom of sustained high-speed driving on under-inflated tyres. By June 2024 at 52,079 miles, both front tyres and the offside rear were again flagged close to the legal limit with edge wear. Failing to replace degraded rubber promptly suggests basic upkeep was deferred until the absolute legal minimum. These are consumable items rather than structural defects, but this pattern of uneven wear places extra scrutiny on the chassis alignment and suspension bushes. A prospective buyer should inspect the current tyre condition closely, verifying correct inflation pressures and checking for any residual edge wear that might indicate ongoing alignment issues or worn suspension components. The brakes require a physical assessment to measure disc thickness and check for binding calipers, as the MOT records provide no brake data to confirm whether the pads and discs have been properly serviced alongside the recent mileage reduction. A thorough underbody inspection for structural corrosion and oil weeps from the drivetrain is also advisable to validate the current clean MOT status.
