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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No words needed :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LOVELY-2...467219?hash=item421283c593:g:3s4AAOSwkEFePxQW Those wheels are £7K ????? Each to their own though I guess

POST 3Original post

Tiptronic with sunroof - yuk! Oh you mean the wheels and stripes - nothing a good hair dryer and ebay advert wouldn't sort out!

POST 4Original post

Wow... just.. wow. He wants £28k for it as well. A cat D tiptronic with the worlds chavviest wheels and stickers. And it's been messed with in the engine department so christ know how knackered the engine is. If the original wheel came with it then perhaps it's worth £18k. Any more than that and the new owner is a chump.

POST 5Original post

Could be a cheap way into 996 Turbo ownership....those additions will reduce its value and are easily remedied. Sadly I don't have the disposable income to justify it....

POST 6Original post

Seen worse :dont know: If you got it for £12k then well done :thumb:

POST 7Original post

The list of better things you could do with £7k is endless - I think that's the worst set of wheels I've ever seen on a 996 and normally I'd be the same re. "each to their own" re. wheels.... genuinely hideous - thank god they're including the orginals

POST 10Original post

RIMS COSTING £7000...(Invoice of £6000 for wheels to hand) Seems a trustworthy fella. Buy it now is £28K? All of a sudden my car is looking like bargain of the century.

POST 11Original post

To be fair............. he says wheels and tyres £7k so maybe the wheels alone were £6k To be cruel.............. nothing sets off a photo for your Porsche for sale better than an old fridge tipped on its side!!!

POST 13Original post

^^ :grin: That's nothing, you should see it in summertime when he drags his sofa outside and cracks open a can of Stella. To be fair, although those wheels don't suit the car, they're maybe alright in isolation. Perhaps they'd look better on a Cayenne or Panamera. As ever, different strokes for different folks.

POST 14Original post

Hadn't spotted the fridge! Excellent! Tiptronic isn't viewed as paddle shift is it?! And why the S badge? Sills look clean though. Early title says '10 of a kind", might be nice to say which of the the ten it is, perhaps there's a plaque inside :lol:

POST 15Original post

Paddle shift can be added as they just replace the switches on the steering wheel. I think they use Merc AMG paddles of some sort.
