The report showed up a couple of things to watch and change in future services but all the usual work has been done and its recently had MO30 suspension fitted which is a little hard but on the Moffat to Edinburgh road home was fantastic - and I was taking it easy being day 1!

I bought the car from near Cardiff and used Barry at The Ramp Room in Newport, near Cardiff.

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.

Well after dreaming for a good while and then debating over my entry point I have taken the plunge and picked up a 2001 C2 and I love it!
Took advantage of a pre purchase inspection given it was 450 miles away - its 95k but low owners and full service history - serviced every year and loads of jobs done in last 12 months.
Couple of picks below from the journey home from Cardiff to Edinburgh!
Sounds good! Barely run in at 95k...
Hope it brings much joy, sounds like you've been sensible with the PPI.
ps you can easily post pics to the site via something like this

rather than faffing with photobucket etc.
I bought the car from near Cardiff and used Barry at The Ramp Room in Newport, near Cardiff. He was recommended by a friend who until recently had a 993. Barry is superb, knows these cars well and drives a 996 himself.
He was incredibly thorough and I got a 9 page report. He spend nearly 3 hours going over the car, including test drive and running diagnostics with 2 different sets of kit.
Both myself and the seller were very impressed. If I wasn't so far away I would be going back there for the servicing.
The report showed up a couple of things to watch and change in future services but all the usual work has been done and its recently had MO30 suspension fitted which is a little hard but on the Moffat to Edinburgh road home was fantastic - and I was taking it easy being day 1!
Congratulations on your purchase.
Re the pictures they need to be below a certain file size to be able to be uploaded as i found out myself having spent ages tryimg to upload and attach them. For everyone of mine i compressed it first then could upload.
Ah - 996 turbo twists and hard back seats. Looked liked the original buyer knew what he was spec'ing. :thumb:
No doubt many other little extra goodies you'll start to find.
Also the bomb proof 3.4 engine! :grin:
Job no. 1 - get that internal bumper trim back to black. Best method is with a heat gun. Or you can spray it. Short term with mine - I coloured it in with a black magic marker
