2018 Porsche 911 3.0L Petrol · WV18 TLN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 30,890 miles failed due to thin rear brake pads and a faulty windscreen washer. While these issues were rectified within a week to secure a pass, the failure suggests that components are only addressed once reaching an inspection threshold. The mileage profile of 30,890 miles over eight years is notably low, averaging approximately 3,860 miles per annum. The record shows a remarkably clean history between 2020 and 2022, where no defects were recorded. However, there is a significant increase in usage between August 2022 and September 2024, where the car covered over 7,400 miles in two years. This increased activity likely correlates with the appearance of wear-related advisories that were not present during the earlier, mileage tests. A buyer must investigate the rear suspension and wheel geometry due to recurring inner edge wear on the tyres noted in both 2023 and 2024. This specific pattern often points to alignment issues, worn suspension bushes, or failing control arms rather than simple tyre age. Furthermore, the 2026 failure for thin rear brake pads necessitates a physical check of the brake discs for uneven wear or scoring, which is common on low-mileage vehicles that sit for long periods between uses.
