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 is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test in November 2025 at 101,559 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a recent lapse in oversight, as evidenced by a failure just two days prior at 101,503 miles. That failed test identified a critical nearside rear tyre below the legal limit and a similarly worn offside rear tyre, alongside misaligned headlamp aims. While these issues were rectified to achieve the pass, they suggest a lack of pre-test preparation regarding basic consumables. The mileage pattern remains consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 72,764 miles and November 2024 at 90,213 miles, the Macan covered roughly 17,500 miles, indicating steady usage. The more recent jump of 11,346 miles between November 2024 and November 2025 maintains this established annual trajectory. This consistent accumulation is typical for a premium performance SUV but places predictable stress on high-wear components like the drivetrain and suspension. A buyer must pay close attention to the oil management system following the oil leak recorded in October 2023 at 78,481 miles. Given the vehicle has now surpassed 100,000 miles, a thorough inspection of gaskets and seals is required to ensure the leak has not worsened. The 2023 record also noted front brake pads at 60 percent wear; with the current mileage, the braking system is likely nearing or at another service interval. Physical inspection of the suspension bushes and bushings is also advised, as the weight of the Macan often accelerates wear on rubber components over these distances.
