Is the 2014 Panamera getting worse?

Pass rate of 2014-registered cars across recent test years:

Test year	Pass rate
2023	89.6% +12.1 vs same-age
2024	87.1% +11.5 vs same-age
2025	88.3% +13.9 vs same-age

The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

FAQs

Is a 2014 Porsche Panamera reliable?

2014-registered examples passed 88.3% of their MOT tests (2,171 tests, 2023–2025), +12.5 points versus all UK cars registered in the same year. At roughly 12 years old with a median 74,520 miles, condition now varies car by car — always check the individual MOT history.

What mileage is too high for a 2014 Panamera?

The median tested example shows 74,520 miles. Anything far beyond that isn't automatically bad — a motorway-mile car with consistent service records often beats a low-mileage school-run car — but price accordingly and scrutinise the mileage trail for gaps or drops.
