2005 Porsche Boxster 3.2L Petrol · YN54 HLE

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful test on October 22, 2025, at 72,554 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a significant failure recorded just two weeks prior at 72,186 miles. That failure resulted from a major leak in the rear exhaust system which prevented the completion of emissions testing. The fact that the vehicle was repaired and passed immediately after the failure suggests the owner is responsive to critical mechanical defects and maintains the car to a functional standard. At 21 years old, the recorded mileage of 72,554 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 3,455 miles per year. The data shows consistent low-intensity usage, with 1,746 miles driven between the December 2023 and October 2024 tests, and 7,440 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. While this low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often masks the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and bushings due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should physically inspect the exhaust system to ensure the major leak identified in October 2025 was properly rectified rather than merely patched with temporary measures. Given the 2022 advisory regarding rear tyres worn to the limit and uneven, a check of the suspension geometry and alignment is necessary to rule out issues causing premature wear. Because of the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, a thorough inspection of structural corrosion on the chassis and the condition of brake lines is vital, as these components often fail due to time rather than distance on cars that sit for long periods.
