Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

22 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone spotted any decent early 997 turbos for sale?

POST 5Original post

You are going to have to look for the car yourself. There are a number of sites here in the USA that are good sources of used Porsches. I do not know of any in the UK though I'm sure there are some. Maybe some of the UK members will offer them up? Oh, wait I just remembered: Check out Total 911. IIRC it has a good cars for sale section, and this may be available online. Other UK published Porsche mags have cars for sale sections too. There's GT and Purely Porsche: web site: http://www.gtpurelyporsche.com Another is 911 & Porsche World. Web site: http://www.911porscheworld.com

There is a nice atlas grey 2007 tip in Cameron cars near bath. 44k

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Seems top end for a 2007 model

POST 8Original post

a few - just search the classifieds yourself, part of the fun surely?

POST 9Original post

"Seems top end for a 2007 model" Doesn't seem so bad when similar are on the OPC site for 50-52k......

POST 10Original post

Look very fare to me if the car is in good order when viewed. Unless you are looking for a dogy car that you need to throw money at after buying.

pistonuser said: Seems top end for a 2007 model Have you seen the frigging spec on the thing? PCCB and loads of leather and carbon bits - I would loved that spec (but tip kills it for me). Seems about right price wise, after you negotiate the inevitable 1k off Edited by Adam B on Friday 23 May 10:42

POST 12Original post

My buddy has a mint 997 Turbo in black for sale, he bought it from 911 Virgin a few months ago and it has Porsche warranty. You need to look at it rather than waste your time looking at junk. Plus he drives like he has Miss Daisy in the back.

Not sure I like the way the wheels have been refurbed but that can be fixed. Everything else is mega.

POST 19Original post

pistonuser said: what do you make of this:- http://www.prestige-sports.co.uk/stock.php?control... looks nice in pictures, nice spec (although I would miss adaptive seats and heated seats), ok price from a dealer for 2006 50k miles

POST 20Original post

what about the aerokit one at wyneford motors? although description about wrong - its not a gen 2 and they don't mention the biggest spec item - the aerokit

POST 21 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
