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.

PORSCHE 996,
R reg, LHD manual, met black, full grey leather, 44k miles, fPsh, 18"" turbo alloys, climate +traction control, remote immobiliser, all usual extras, just had full Porsche service . £27,000.

Quite. I think a redefinition of the phrase 'really cheap' may be necessary. A dealer would probably bid 10K short of that if he knew you were in a pickle (and probably even if he didn't)
i agree with due to the fact that most porsches bore the life out of me but hey i am just doing a favor for a mate. one dealer offered 27,000 but he needs 29,000 to cover himself. thanks for the intelligent remarks.
If I was your mate I'd grab the 27K with both hands and find 2K somewhere else. You can get 2K anywhere and damn quickly. From a dealer its cash in the bank and easy - in a private sale almost anyone buying won't be operating to the same timescales as your mate is.
Even the Inland Revenue would wait for the 2K if the 27 got handed over...if its the VAT people its a different matter.
Sorry to hear of your mate's plight.
... or wait until next year and get 2 !
Indeed what a craking idea, a Cerbera for rainy days and a Griffith for when it's sunny. Why didn't I think of that HeirHerman?
R...
You're quick Mr B, but are you reliable ?
Poor old TuscanRaider. Tries to do his mate a favour and as usual his post get's hijacked by this childish TVR v Porsche banter. Mind you, you started it
Oh, and it's Herr TheGerman if you don't mind.
Sorry Herman, I guess I was commenting more on the "really cheap" part of the post rather than the Porsche vs' TVR bit, however it seems that even the Porsche guys on here agree that you can get a "real" Porsche for less than £29k.
p.s. Sorry but I thought Herr Herman is a respectfull form of familiar address, years ago I used to work in a shop (not Grace Bros.) where the Staff were address as Mr Peter, Mr Percy etc. !
My misunderstanding. My comment re Tuscan was just a comment on the depreciation you might expect to see over the next year (or 2)
You're asking for trouble with that "real" Porsche quote though. Boxster S is quite a tool, although I'm a 911 man myself you understand.
Oh I'm quite used to that, I used ot have a 924 Turbo which was also quite a tool (in it's day). Mates oftenm used to say "get a real one", mind I shut them up when I took them out in it!
