2021 Porsche 911 Targa 4S 3.0L Petrol · X1 RTM

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 22 May 2026 at 9,069 miles resulted in a pass, though it carried an advisory for the front outer tyre worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge both sides. This marks the first recorded defect in the three-year MOT history, suggesting a potential shift in maintenance diligence. Previous tests in May 2025 and May 2024 both passed with no defects at 7,875 miles and 6,006 miles respectively, indicating an initially stable maintenance trend that now shows early signs of potential neglect or simply the natural progression of tyre wear on a low-mileage vehicle. The mileage accumulation of 9,069 miles over approximately five years equates to roughly 1,814 miles per year, which is exceptionally low for a 2021 model. The steady increase from 6,006 miles in May 2024 to 7,875 miles in May 2025 (1,869 miles) and then to 9,069 miles in May 2026 (1,194 miles) reveals a consistent, albeit light, usage pattern. There are no significant gaps in testing or abrupt jumps in mileage, suggesting regular, albeit infrequent, use rather than long-term storage. The clean records prior to 2026 imply diligent servicing, but the low annual mileage may also mean components like tyres and rubber seals degrade from age rather than wear. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the front tyres, as the advisory indicates significant wear that could affect road holding and traction. Given the low mileage, inspect for signs of tyre ageing, cracking, or uneven wear patterns beyond the documented outer edge. Additionally, examine the suspension components, particularly bushings and mounts, for signs of perishing or binding that may not have manifested during MOT testing. Check for any evidence of long-term moisture ingress or corrosion around the chassis and wheel arches, as low annual mileage can sometimes mask issues arising from infrequent use or seasonal storage. The exhaust system and underbody should also be inspected for any signs of rust or deterioration, especially considering the vehicle's age despite its low mileage.
