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

Dear All, After having ruled out the purchase of Cayman gts or carrera gts due to a change in my budget, I am now finalising the buy of a C2S. I have short listed two vehicles from OPCs, pretty similar apart from some details and would appreciate views from more experienced people. Cars are same colour and equivalent wheels, car n. 1 is a one owner, 11 plate with 34k miles, car no.2 is a 4 owners 60 plate with 31k miles. Both drives beautifully, in both cases so far great service from the sale executives. First one comes with the benefit of adaptive sport seats ( the other has manual sport seats), short shifter and chrono plus, otherwise spec is similar, sport exhaust included. I terms of condition they are similar, although no. 2 has several stone chips on the bonnet ( fair enough...) and one on the windscreen, the other is pretty clean. In terms of price no. 1 is £2k more expensive. I know that choice can be subjective and that the difference is little, however it would be great to get some advices! Thank you in advance

POST 2Original post

Is. No1 Bristol and no 2 Portsmouth if so Car no1 is a 2011 my and is def. worth the extra cash! No2 is also a 2010my and not as good spec! Given the choice no2 I would not touch with a barge pole

Hi, you are spot on, how did you know ....are you the gentleman from the Bristol OPC? Ahh ahh, only joking, thanks a lot for the advice. It was exactly my feeling since I tried the Bristol one, I felt like if it had been specced by myself.

It was exactly my feeling since I tried the Bristol one, I felt like if it had been specced by myself. Not that hard when there is only about 5 post 2010 manual c2s on the opc website! Also the white Cardiff car looks nice but the Bristol is best of the bunch spec wise also says it's a 61 plate and not 11 plate? Anyway enjoy!

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, yes the Bristol one is a 61 plate, I was wrong. Just put a deposit on it, can't wait to collect it and drive across the country!
