When I bought it it had only covered 1400 miles in four year as it had been stored, I had it thoroughly checked over and then serviced with a full diagnostic from Mercury Sports Classics in Brentwood and to date (touch wood) have had very few issues, a replacement oil pressure sensor and lower rear swing arm and thats about it.

The car was originally supplied with Turbo Twist wheels which I have replaced for the pictured wheels, having recently had them refurbished.

I have made a few changes to the car, the addition of Artic silver dash strip and central air vents plus an alloy pedal set, I may also upgrade to M030 in the new year.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

HI everyone
Tom here, a new member living in Westcliff on Sea. I have recently joined the club with a 2002 seal grey 996 C2 pictured, I bought the car from the wife of the original owner having only covered 30000 miles and the condition really does reflect that. The car was originally supplied with Turbo Twist wheels which I have replaced for the pictured wheels, having recently had them refurbished.
My other passion is collecting vintage Omega watches but at the moment (since september) I must admit I have been somewhat distracted by the porsche.
The car will spend most of the winder months tucked up whilst the sturdy Golf GT TDI 170 get the brunt of the winter months.
I have made a few changes to the car, the addition of Artic silver dash strip and central air vents plus an alloy pedal set, I may also upgrade to M030 in the new year.
The car has been a pleasure so far! When I bought it it had only covered 1400 miles in four year as it had been stored, I had it thoroughly checked over and then serviced with a full diagnostic from Mercury Sports Classics in Brentwood and to date (touch wood) have had very few issues, a replacement oil pressure sensor and lower rear swing arm and thats about it.
Has a few options, PSM, Bose, hard back sports seats etc but it really is very much a stock car
Anyway, thats me
Cheers Tom
Tom!!
Looks lovely. I like the Carrera wheels. M030 is a really good upgrade if you have half decent roads in your area. It makes the car feel much more 'planted' and improves the look too.
Here are a couple of my favourite Chronographs
Omega Seamaster 'Bullhead' drivers chronograph (this example was NOS when I bought it, not bad for a 1969 watch)
Omega Seamaster 'Skywalker' Chronograph, hard metal tungsten carbide coated case and really very rare (again 1969)
Most of my watch collection is rare early 'high end' quartz watches, Omega Marine Chronometers and Megaquartz's such as this beauty (the corner stone of my collection, 1977 watch original sold the day I was born in the jewellers in my home town)
My daily wear is this beauty, a birth year (1977) Rolex Oysterquartz, one of the first 250 made and one of Rolex's rarer production watches
If you fancy seeing something a little rarer then there is this, 1/5 ever made Omega Megaquartz F2.4Mhz prototypes, the most accurate production watch ever made (accuracy of 1 second per month) and the forefather of the above Marine Chronometer
I was thinking-What a lovely hairy arm & clean hand you have[

As to watches-I can only run to my 21st birthday Omega automatic -no bells or whistles-1963 model,leather strap automatic anologue plus my daily wear-Rolex Oyster PerpetualDatejust-gold/stainless bracelet-the rest of my "jewellery" money is in my Wifes Diamond solitaire ring-which alone is responsible for half our main home insurance premium[&o]
Hi - welcome to the club. Car looks nice. I am also in Westcliff.
(I am a watch fan and currently have a few Tag's, and a just got a new Rolex Explorer).
Are you going to try the car on any track days in 2012?
Hi Stuart
Yep I am absolutely loving it, the only major problem I am having at the moment is that I keep trying to garage it for winter then keep getting it back out to drive [
]
So far I am over the moon with it, I searched for long time to find a very low mileage example with the right colour combination and spec level and it's hasn't disappointed! I've just gone with Warranty Wise for extended peace of mind but am just thrilled with the car
Cheers Tom
