2018 Porsche 911 3.0L Petrol · RV18 LWC

The 2018 Porsche 911 presents a stable and improving mechanical trajectory, culminating in a clean pass on 13 March 2026 at 26,903 miles with zero defects. The vehicle has shifted from a pattern of recurring tyre wear advisories between 2022 and 2024 to a fully defect-free status in its two most recent tests. This indicates a resolving trend regarding consumable wear, suggesting the previous owner addressed the underlying causes or replaced the worn components. The current roadworthiness status is excellent, with no immediate mechanical or structural concerns flagged by the DVSA tester this year. Covering roughly 3,363 miles per year, this example has seen exceptionally light use, which typically preserves drivetrain and suspension components but can lead to tyre perishing and flat-spotting from prolonged standing. The mileage accumulation remains consistent, with a 2,599-mile increase between the May 2025 and March 2026 tests, and a 4,350-mile jump in the preceding year. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings, reflecting steady, low-frequency use rather than long periods of total abandonment or high-mileage motorway slogs. Despite the recent clean bills of health, the historical recurrence of inner rear tyre wear and perishing demands a physical inspection of the rear suspension geometry and bushes. Uneven inner edge degradation often points to misalignment or worn suspension components, and while the 2025 and 2026 tests show no current advisories, a buyer should thoroughly inspect the inner sidewalls of the current tyres for similar wear patterns. The 2024 test also flagged cracking and perishing on the front tyres, meaning a close inspection of the rubber's condition and manufacturing date codes is prudent to ensure the compound has not hardened or degraded further. Examine the brake discs and calipers for signs of binding or uneven wear, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface corrosion and sticking components due to a lack of regular thermal cycling.
