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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I know this car is from a reputable dealer, what should i be looking out for and what do you think its worth paying? http://www.rsjsportscars.co.uk/showroom_details.ph...

POST 2Original post

Nice spec car that. GT silver and blue is a great combo. Over-revs and the condition of the ceramic brakes would be the two main things I would check out on that car. Assuming it has a proper history too.

POST 3Original post

It might not be important to you but it doesn't have heated seats. That would be a non starter for me. I've had four Porsches now and three of them were convertibles. Only one had heated seats, it was the last cab I owned but now I'd never have one without. If you've never had them it's not an issue but when you have they are a must have in my opinion. I even wanted them in my current coupe!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just bought it over the phone....picking up tomorrow. I hope it lives up to what RSJ are about, they certainly seem to have good reviews!! Hoping the cars lives up to expectation Edited by pistonuser on Monday 2nd June 20:38

POST 6Original post

Wow you bought without viewing or test driving? I did it once and on a private sale but it's a big risk. I was out of the country so I had no choice if I wanted to get the car. Well good luck, I'm sure the car will be in great condition. It might be worth taking it to Porsche to get a free health inspection. You can then go back to them if there are any issues whilst your warranty is still valid. The 997 Turbo is epic! Edited by Isysman on Tuesday 3rd June 16:47
