Our Verdict
Proceed with significant caution due to
Given the recent failure involving four separate brake pipe corrosion issues (nearside front, nearside rear, offside front, and offside rear), you should verify that all affected flexible brake pipes have been replaced with new components rather than merely repaired. Ask for specific invoices relating to the April 2026 repairs to confirm the work was carried out to a professional standard.
Additionally, check the condition of the nearside front drive shaft CV boot to ensure the replacement was successful and that no further grease leakage is present. Because the 2024 and 2025 MOTs noted that underbody covers were obscuring testable items, it is vital to request a physical inspection of the chassis and underside to ensure no other corrosion is hidden from view.
As a 3.4L petrol vehicle, running costs will be substantial. Expect high fuel consumption consistent with a large-capacity naturally aspirated engine and high insurance groups typical for a Porsche 911.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally higher than average, particularly for braking systems and suspension components. While specific tax and insurance bands aren't provided, the high engine displacement and performance profile suggest a premium cost of ownership.
A thorough inspection of the braking system is mandatory. Specifically, look for any signs of weeping or corrosion around the brake calipers and flexible pipes, as the April 2026 MOT failure highlighted widespread corrosion across all four corners.
Inspect the nearside front drive shaft area for any signs of split boots or grease spray, which was a recorded failure point. Finally, because previous MOT testers noted that engine and underbody covers were obscuring parts of the vehicle, you should insist on a specialist lifting the car to inspect the underside for any hidden corrosion or leaks that were not visible during the 2024 and 2025 tests.
This 2015 white Porsche 911 has covered 87,116 miles since its first registration in April 2015. While the vehicle has a history of passes, a significant failure in April 2026 involving multiple brake pipe corrosion issues and a split CV boot is a notable concern. The mileage is considerably higher than the model average of 2,166 miles per year.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 90.7% MOT pass rate, with common failures typically relating to headlamps, exhausts, and anti-roll bars.
