Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2026‑01‑09 at 99,884 miles, recording only a slight headlamp lens defect and a low oil level. The pattern since 2021 shows a clear improvement: after multiple failures in 2021‑2022, the car has cleared the last three annual tests without major defects. The maintenance trend is therefore stable and improving, with no recurring serious issues in the latest assessments. Mileage accumulation is modest at roughly 4,540 miles per year, well below the average for a 22‑year‑old Porsche. The MOT schedule has remained annual, with the 2025 test at 99,139 miles and the 2026 test just seven months before the present date, confirming recent compliance. The 745‑mile increase between the 2025 and 2026 tests indicates very light usage, suggesting the car has been stored or driven infrequently. A buyer should inspect the front constant‑velocity joint boots, rear registration‑plate lamp, rear inner tyre tread, front tyre scrub, anti‑roll bar linkage dust covers, and the cooling system for leaks. The low oil level and headlamp lens defect noted in January 2026 merit a close check of oil condition and lamp assembly. Given the age, examine suspension bushes, brake disc thickness, and chassis for corrosion, as these components are not reflected in the MOT advisories but are critical for long‑term reliability.
