2018 Porsche Boxster 2.5L Petrol · TT13 JSB

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-01 recorded two front tyres worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, with no other defects. This aligns with a recurring pattern of tyre wear observed in prior tests, including rear tyres near the limit in 2023 and 2025, and front tyre damage in 2025. The 2026 test shows no improvement in tyre condition, suggesting ongoing issues with tread wear or alignment. The vehicle’s mileage of 62,582 miles over 8 years averages 7,823 miles annually, which matches typical usage for its age. However, the annual mileage increased significantly in recent years, rising from 15,017 miles in 2022 to 62,582 miles in 2026. This suggests heavier use in later years, which could accelerate wear on tyres, brakes, and suspension components. The 2025 MOT noted front brake discs worn but not excessively, indicating potential for future replacement. The trend of tyre wear has remained consistent rather than worsening, with no major new defects in the latest test. However, repeated near-limit wear on tyres and the 2025 observation of front tyre damage imply a need for closer inspection of suspension, alignment, or tyre pressure systems. The 2024 entry about a nail in the offside front tyre was a one-off issue, but the recurring tyre problems highlight a persistent risk.
