2010 Porsche Cayman 2.9L Petrol · YR10 XUS

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in April 2026, but the history reveals a developing mechanical issue that requires your immediate attention. The most significant risk is the coolant leak, which progressed from a single leak on the nearside front in 2025 to leaks on both the nearside and offside fronts in 2026. This indicates an active and worsening problem in the cooling system that could lead to overheating or more severe engine damage if not rectified soon. You should also note that the front inner brake discs have been consistently flagged as worn, pitted, or scored during tests in 2022, 2024, and 2026. Despite the car covering very low mileage, the condition of these discs has not improved and suggests they are suffering from corrosion due to lack of use rather than mechanical wear. A major limitation of this history is the presence of front-to-rear underbody panels, which have prevented a proper inspection of the underside for at least four years. Because the tester has been unable to view the chassis, suspension, or exhaust properly, there is a hidden risk of corrosion or wear on critical structural components that you cannot verify through the paperwork alone. The recorded mileage of 28,682 is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging under 1,800 miles per year. While this implies the car has seen light use, the MOT evidence supports the specific downsides of long-term storage, including the perishing rear tyre noted in 2024 and the corroded brake discs. Low mileage vehicles often suffer from degraded rubber seals and dried-out fluids, which likely explains the emerging coolant leaks.
