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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Since I started watching the 'B is for Build' channel on youtube, I have been keeping an eye on Copart (the source of lots of crashed cars he rebuilds). Spotted this 996 Turbo on their site......I realise you would have to be brave to buy via this route, but someone could get a bargain......(depends what the reserve is set at) https://www.copart.co.uk/lot/56224978 I wont be bidding (I dont have the money or the balls!).

POST 4Original post

Oil pressure is low if the gauge is correct, at low engine temps that should be 4.5-5 bar. Mileage is very reasonable though, interested to see where this goes.....

POST 5Original post

Same sort of mileage as when I bought mine. It'll be due for its first round of EVERYTHING soon....Rads,coil packs, alternator,clutch, suspension etc etc. Could be looking down the barrel of 10-20ks worth of bills unless you are a home mechanic. IMHO And thats if its been looked after...why has it ended up in the auction?

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The bargain-lover in me would love to grab this if its cheap....are you going for it Jin?

POST 8Original post

No...need my cash for a property that I am doing up to sell :sad: :thumb:

POST 9Original post

No MOT History between 2011 and 2018? Am I missing something or has it been stuck in a tardis? C

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I didnt spot that.....but not surprised. With most cars being sold at Copart, there is usually a story (most have been crashed and are salvage). This lot is not marked as crashed and isn't 'recorded'. If this 996T was mint, with FSH, I doubt anyone would try and sell it through Copart....

POST 11Original post

But if you got it for 'teens then who'd give a sh** :dont know: Go for it, you only live once :thumb:

POST 12Original post

not particularly a bargain now, over £20k (3 hours remaining) + around £2k fees and +some vat. it will end £25/£30k all in, at least. for not much more you can go and 'pick' one. Rather expensive now in my book. :?

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Agreed - think it will climb further before the auction ends, so after fees it will end up at close to mkt price (still probably a bit cheaper).....so as you say, you could go and pick one...... Jin - if it was still in the teens, I would have seriously thought about it...

POST 14Original post

Price seems high now, maybe a dodgy bidder :bandit: :grin:
