2022 Porsche Taycan 4S 93KWH Electric · SH71 DAN

The Porsche Taycan 4S in question demonstrates a stable and clean MOT history, with both recent tests—conducted on 4 March 2026 and 11 March 2025—resulting in a full pass without any recorded defects or advisories. This consistency suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, compliant maintenance within the legal requirements, though it does not preclude underlying issues not captured by the MOT. The most recent test, just five months ago, aligns with the DVSA’s 12-month interval for electric vehicles, indicating no overdue or deferred MOTs. The absence of recurring advisories or defects implies the tester did not identify any critical failures in brakes, suspension, emissions, or structural integrity during either inspection. The recorded mileage of 32,754 miles over approximately four years—roughly 8,188 miles annually—falls within the expected range for a vehicle of this age and class. There are no gaps or spikes in mileage to suggest prolonged neglect or excessive use, though the sparse MOT data (only two tests) limits deeper trend analysis. The Taycan’s low annual mileage may reflect either careful owner usage or periods of limited operation, which could influence wear on consumables like tyres, brakes, and suspension bushes. Without service records, it remains unclear whether maintenance intervals for high-value components—such as battery health, regenerative braking systems, or high-performance tyres—have been adhered to. Given the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the battery system, particularly the thermal management and cell integrity, as these are critical yet non-MOT-tested components in high-voltage EVs. The suspension, including coil springs, bushes, and dampers, warrants close examination for wear or binding, especially if the vehicle has experienced uneven loading or aggressive driving. Brake systems, though not flagged, should be assessed for uneven pad thickness, binding calipers, or excessive rotor wear, as regenerative braking can accelerate pad degradation. Finally, a thorough visual check for corrosion—particularly around the battery tray, wheel arches, and underbody—is essential, given the Taycan’s exposure to road salt and environmental factors over time.
